I think the term of art these days is "tattleware"—there have been a flurry of stories in the media lately about the growth of the market during the pandemic. While I can see how its possible to abuse RescueTime in this way, as a happy customer for several years now, its been a lifesaver for me in several ways. It helps keep me from falling down rabbit holes thanks to my ADHD, which is probably the biggest reason I started using it. It also made it much, much easier to bill my hours when I was working as a consultant. I know the skepticism factor is high here on HN, but having been a customer of theirs for years, I can say that the RescueTime team is one of the good actors in this space. Brian, looking forward to seeing the new work once its released!
