Currently, there are many wearable devices that track the location and activities of kids. Parents concern about safety and they think these devices are good for their children. However, no one has discussed if kids have the right to reject putting these devices on. In some extreme situations, parents who are controlling about their kids could even trick the kids to put on such devices. This project constructs a sad scenario where the tracking device causes a tragedy. While the technology of wearable devices is rapidly developing, some human rights are being neglected, especially children's right as they don't have sufficient channels to express their opinions and feelings. Out team thinks it is worth the discussion to consider children's right when we make IoT devices.
