After the shift to remote work due to COVID-19, there was a significant rise in the use of devices and software aimed at preventing employer monitoring. As companies adopted bossware, employees turned to solutions like mouse movers and jiggler devices to create the illusion of activity on their computers. The demand for these tools surged, particularly through online retailers. However, many employees may face restrictions in installing such software due to a lack of administrative rights on corporate devices, complicating their attempts to circumvent surveillance.
'The epidemic of bossware that followed the coronavirus pandemic led to a boom in solutions to limit what companies can find out, according to Vice magazine.'
Numerous programs are offered for free on the internet for this purpose. The catch is that employees who need such devices... are unlikely to have admin rights to install new software on a company PC.
