In Harlan Coben’s article “The Undercover Parent”(2008) he discusses the pros and cons of a new technology called Spyware. When one thinks of Spyware‚ they immediately think of a spy. The spy is your parent‚ spyware gives them access to everything on your electronic devices. Parents decide it’s better to go through our devices for information instead of asking their children questions. This is a huge invasion of privacy.
