In Part 1 of The Heat is On Apple, we exposed how Apple’s ecosystem puts kids at risk — from iMessage to iCloud to the App Store.
In Part 2, we’re asking the only question that matters: What could Apple do to protect children — and how do we get them to do it?
We break down real solutions Apple could deploy tomorrow: device-based age verification, real App Store safeguards, proactive CSAM detection in iCloud, global reporting tools in iMessage, and parental controls that actually work. And we examine the growing pressure forcing Apple’s hand — lawsuits, new laws, global regulators, and parents demanding accountability.
Finally, we share what families can do right now: don’t rely on Apple defaults, consider kid-safe devices, talk to another parent, and get involved in the movement pushing Apple to protect children instead of profits.
