👉 Voyeur computing, also known as voyeuristic computing, is a term that describes the use of computer systems and networks to observe, record, or gather information about individuals without their consent. This can involve hacking into private devices, exploiting vulnerabilities in software to access personal data, or deploying surveillance tools to monitor online activities. The practice raises significant ethical concerns about privacy, consent, and the potential for misuse of personal information. While it can be used for legitimate purposes such as cybersecurity testing or research, its primary and most controversial application is in the realm of unauthorized surveillance, often leading to privacy violations and legal repercussions.
