Let me explain. Are keyloggers legal? The answer is yes, absolutely legal. If ur given the admin permissions (which is usually required to install a keylogger) meant u have the right to install anything. It's more about the morale viewpoint of whether u should monitor using a keylogger, but it's definitely legal and ok to install on a PC that u have the rights over.
There are so many situations when monitoring and recording the computer activity is not only legal, but necessary. Examples, companies may use computer monitoring software to ensure that their employees don't use the company's assets for personal purposes; parents can use spy software to protect their children from online abuse. Dan sudah tentu ada yang akan menggunakannya untuk tujuan negatif seperti mencuri nombor kad kredit, password atau rahsia syarikat. However, even in this situation it't not the keylogger software that breaks the law, but the person using it. There are also users that are not necessarily considered illegal, but have some morale issues that connected to him, nak kantoikan cheating spouse in the act or whatsoever.
It's all depends on the way u use the keylogger. U have the right to install any programs on the computer that belongs to u. U also have the right to install on other people's computer if only u have their permission. Installing a monitoring program on other person's computer without permission maybe illegal. The legal status of keyloggers is somewhat vague. Federal Judge in California dismissed a keylogger case basically saying that keyloggers don't violate the Federal wiretapping laws.
There are both good and bad uses for keyloggers. It absolutely violate personal privacy, no question. Use of a keylogger when targeted and with a warrant is a good use (to catch the bad guys and judge reviews the issues). Monitoring ur OWN assets is VALID but must be informed (via policy or signage). If it's a family, leave it up to ur own ethics.
Everything depends on your particular situation and who has the custody of the machines. Do u copy  |

If it's my own computer, and and I want to use a keylogger, plus I know keylogger can't be installed on Linux, I'll make sure the computer's OS should be Windows, any changeable to the system is not allowed coz it's MINE (but must be telling them that their activities are monitored). U see the idea?
Please read my #21's post thoroughly, I'm done here |
