It could be difficult to manage a group of people who have PCs at their desks. You may observe your employees. It may look like a very busy room. However, all these workers might be doing everything but not their jobs. Will you get your hands on that dirty spyware? Or is there perhaps a more honest and transparent way of computer monitoring?
Sure, a couple of years ago there was little supervisors could do. They had to install spyware. Spyware is the name for software applications that make screenshots, copy text the user inputs into their computer, monitor traffic. Yes, you get the power. What happens is that people start having bad thoughts about you. You can lose respect of your people, because you are effectively breaking their privacy.
