It's being done to push digital ID, not to get children off their screens, since there are plenty of other things they can stare at on screen.

#6I would think that a _total_ ban on devices _during school hours_ would hit the 80/20 mark of preventing psychological harm to kids, without the invasiveness of digital ID. Idiot parents that say "omg what if i have to contact my kid during classes" can blow it out their collective *sses - it is they being invasive and harmful.
