Internet monitoring refers to the practice of observing and analyzing online activities, including website visits, social media interactions, and email communications. This can be done by individuals, organizations, or governments to gather data for various purposes, such as improving services, ensuring security, or enforcing laws. The tools used for internet monitoring can range from simple software that tracks user behavior to complex systems that analyze large amounts of data. While it can help identify trends and enhance user experiences, it also raises concerns about privacy and the potential for misuse of personal information.
