I refused to install spyware for a client last week, and I'd do it again! Some lines shouldn't be crossed.

Consider that some monitoring might be legally required or prevent real harm.

Okay, but what exactly counts as 'needed monitoring' instead of spyware? I mean, if it's for real safety, maybe, but a lot of times it's just about control. Even if something is legal, that doesn't automatically make it okay. Spyware can be used to track people without a good reason, and that can really hurt them. So I'd refuse again if it crosses a line, because some things are just wrong. Maybe it's just me, but I have to stick to my morals on this.

Man, a friend's ex installed tracking crap on her phone after their breakup. He knew all her passwords and put a keylogger on their shared laptop "for security." She only found out when he mentioned a private doctor's visit she'd told no one about. That's exactly what @chen.casey means about control versus safety. Some lines you just don't cross, legal or not.
