Is Your Boss Spying on You? Use of ‘Bossware’ Surged During Pandemic.

Employee monitoring software, known as “bossware,” can log keystrokes, note websites visited, capture screenshots, record mouse movements, and activate webcams or microphones.

People actually believing the spying is going on, do they ever think it’s them of course not. Some think they shouldn’t care but in the world of today you really , really should care because the most innocent things can be used against anyone today. We must remember we’re not the America most of us grew up in.

Isn't it assumed when you take the job that the "boss" has the right to monitor the job he pays you to do?

It's the boss' job to watch you ... why are you posting troll on-the-clock? ...

Never had an interest in this OCD nonsense but I know some employers who are neck deep into this sort of stuff. I guess I am just not a paranoid person. When I worked for others, I screwed around, stole office supplies, did personal crap on company time, etc etc etc. As long as the work gets done, I couldnt give two F's. It probably kept me at a couple jobs longer than I should have stayed because it was kind of fun feeling like I was getting one over on Da Man.
