Well, parents can already do that. I think the basic solution is still a VPN. Can’t read encripted traffic. Tor would be tempting to say, but a lot of nodes are owned by the government still would be better than nothing. Other than that, use strong passwords, set the browsers to delete cookies on close, use a password manager.
In a functioning society accessing private information on someone else would be subject to a proper review system with audits to prevent anyone from accessing information they don’t have a very good (legal) reason to have.
So yeah it’d probably be possible in the USA, but in other places they definitely couldn’t just pull up your search history.
Even in the US it would be punishable. Morality aside, using a billion dollar NSA malware on a person carries a real risk of getting caught. The NSA might be willing to wear that risk for a high value person, but not for some employees kid.
Purely on a misuse of a valuable asset it would be punishable.
I can’t remember if it was local or national news, but I believe last month or so, a police officer was charged with using work resources to creep on his ex.
So, it’s certainly possible, but they could get in a lot of trouble if word got out.
Do you assume secret services are constantly spying on their kids?
Idk, I was just wondering like… what if my parents had worked in the NSA, like they could probably pull up my search history.
Cuz they like to cross boundaries like that.
