Bark vs Kaspersky
Bark offers the website blocking and screen time management features Kaspersky does, plus sends alerts about potential dangers your kid faces online — issues like suicidal ideation, porn, cyberbullying, and much more. Kaspersky does not send these alerts.
Kaspersky actually offers no content monitoring powered by advanced technology, so Bark is the clear winner here.
Kaspersky does not offer alerts for sexual content. Bark will send you a text message and/or email if your child encounters this content online.
