Parents who try to control what their young children watch often meet frustration when their efforts are thwarted by tech-savvy kids who find a workaround. If only there was a technology expert with children who liked cartoons who could prevent this from happening!

Meet Dave Harvilicz, co-founder of the new family-friendly streaming service Hopscotch TV. He was just appointed as Assistant Secretary for Cyber, Infrastructure, Risk, and Resilience at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Kids—good luck pulling an end-around on this guy.
