It's bad enough checking your partner's phone when they leave the room, or taking a peek at their Facebook page, yet a new app takes this level of snooping not just a step further, but a giant leap forward.

The mSpy app works on select smartphones including Apple, Android, BlackBerry and Windows Phone and can be used to gain access to an unprecedented level of personal information.

It records phone calls, tracks a person's location, lets users remotely read texts, Skype, Facebook and Viber messages, view browsing history and even see how much battery the phone has left.

According to Oregon-based mSpy's website, the app is designed for "monitoring your children, employees or others on a smartphone or mobile device."

However, it adds the person doing the spying must own the device being tracked, or the person being tracked must give his or her permission.

Spies can also use the app to view videos and photos stored on a device, see the phone owner's list of applications and software updates, open their calendar, notes and tasks, and even get hold of the phone's unique IMEI number.

They can additionally remotely lock or wipe a device, block websites and calls from certain contacts as well as record the person's surroundings.

People wanting to use the app do need to physically install it onto the phone they wish to track, yet once installed mSpy promises the app is 100 percent undetectable.


사생활 파괴 앱 등장

 

통화 내역, 위치 추적, 문자, 스카이프 페이스북 등 메세지 읽기, 인터넷 검색기록, 배터리 잔여량을 모두 무선으로 추적할 수 있는 앱이 출시됐다.

데일리 메일에 의하면 이 엠스파이 앱은 애플 안드로이드 블랙베리 윈도우 폰 등 모든 스마트폰 기기에 설치 가능하다.

미국 오레곤 주에 기반을 둔 엠스파이의 웹사이트에는 이 앱이 자녀 보호, 직원 관리 등을 위해 출시하게 됐다고 배경을 밝혔다.

웹사이트는 꼭 추적 대상에게 사실을 알리고 사용하도록 권고하고 있다. 상대방이 추적 사실을 모르게 할 수 도 있다는 뜻이다.

폰에 저장된 사진, 비디오, 폰에 설치된 앱, 소프트웨어 업데이트 여부, 일정, 메모, 할 일 등을 모두 열람할 수 있을 뿐 아니라 IMEI 고유번호까지 알 수 있다.

무선으로 폰을 잠글 수도 있고 삭제할 수 도 있으며 특정 웹사이트에 접속을 막거나 촬영을 할 수도 있다.

추척하고 싶은 사람의 폰에 직접 설치해야하며 일단 한 번 설치 된 앱은 전혀 티가 나지 않는다.
