@PHant0m Yeah I was shocked when I logged in and saw this message.

Content and Privacy Restrictions are often utilized by administrators and parents to control access to features and settings on students' iOS devices. Once configured, these restrictions are protected by a simple passcode that is set up at the time of enforcement.

Admins can now use Systems Manager to remotely clear the Restrictions passcodes on supervised devices running iOS 8.0+. This allows admins to reset or change local restrictions if the current passcode is unknown or lost. To clear the Restrictions passcode, go to the target device's details page in Dashboard, then click the new Clear restrictions button in the "MDM Commands" section.
