I have no doubt it is what they're selling. But the question is if the tool does something, then the marketing message shouldn't really be relevant. If a FlexiSpy clone comes along and is less direct about spouse-spying, and plays a stronger line of "you need authorization", then it's suddenly OK?
- sigmar 9y ago>the marketing message shouldn't really be relevant my point was that it isn't just marketing, this use-case was a huge part of their thinking while designing the software and offering support to customers. [repeating my comment almost verbatim] If a clone came along that wasn't designed so that it can be totally hidden while installed, then privacy advocates would be less angry.
- lmm 9y agoMany tools have legitimate and illegitimate uses. There is rarely a clear sharp line; we have to make a judgement as to whether a given tool does more harm than good, on the whole, and there are no shortcuts. IMO it's entirely right to weigh the marketing message in that balance; after all, the marketing will by design affect what kind of people buy the tool with what kind of intentions.
