Nedir: Policeware

Policeware Nedir

Policeware ('polis' ve 'yazılım' kelimelerinin birleşiminden) yetkililer tarafından veya yetkililer için geliştirilen (örneğin polis, istihbarat ve özel hizmetler, vb.) Yazılımdır. Vatandaşların dijital iletişimlerini (e-postalar ve anlık mesajlaşma programları) (çoğunlukla gizlice) izlemek için tasarlanmıştır.

In the United States, the first example of this kind of software, which became known to the public over time, was the software package named Carnivore. This software was installed in the Internet providers' networks and was used for recording citizens' computer communications, including emails.

Some countries, such as Switzerland and Germany, have legislation that regulates use of such software. In German-speaking countries, spyware used or created by the government is sometimes called govware.
