I'm looking to buy software to monitor computer useage by teens. I'm leaning toward Spector Pro but wanted to get feedback from y'all. Any recommendations or comments?
You come across like a Doctor trying to explain what is wrong, using only medical terms.
I was trying to provide a sensible solution that a non-techy could use. I have been around long enough to know that nothing is really "unhackable".
Sound advice.
Never ask a question unless you know you want the answer.
I have friend who got a keystroke filter put on his computer because his daughter chatted a lot. He din't catch her doing anything but he did catch his wife writing a seamy love letter to one of her co-workers.
So, he wants to check up on his kids and ends up getting divorced.
If you do this, wait a month or two until they stop looking for it.
Booting to the recovery console requires an administrative password. If you have that, you hardly need to boot to the console in the first place.
Kids should be able to have private conversations without their parents reading it.
I understand you don't like the idea, but why do you think it's "bad?"
Also, why do you think kids should be able to use family assets to have "private conversations?"
What was the point of this comment? You know there's no such thing as a mindreading chip.
It's pretty obvious they are communicating, but the parent is concerned the child may be less than totally honest.
That seems like a straightforward and reasonable concern to me.
Thank you for your service.
