Help Silence The Bullying Epidemic With mSpy Smartphone Monitoring @mspycom

We'd love it if you shared it!

This is a sponsored post. Information on the app was provided by mSpy. The info about how I was bullied is all real. Please note that, as always, any personal opinions reflected in this post are my own and have not been influenced by the sponsor or compensation received in any way.

I’ve mentioned before that I was bullied when I was in high school. I was much younger then most of my classmates, two to four years younger. Even the nerds didn’t like me, and I was in all of their classes. Basically I was either ignored, or picked on mercilessly. Most days I prayed to be ignored, as lonely as that was. Their abuse was never physical. It was mental, emotional and verbal. Back in those days, bullying wasn’t called bullying. Teachers and administration never called it that. Back then there were “misunderstandings”, “exaggerations” or “things being blown out of proportion”. Nowadays it’s even easier to bully someone, because there are more places to do it. Bullying for me ended most days when I left the school. Today, even computers are being cast by the wayside as more and more people turn to their cell phones for online activities like email, chat and surfing the web. This means they run the risk of being cyberbullied.

We see mentions of cyberbullying in the newspapers and on television. There used to be a line between the bullies and those being bullied. That line has become virtually transparent now that cyber bulling is reaching epidemic proportions. parents need to do all that they can to help battle this problem head on and keep their children safe.

As much as 70% of teens hide their online behavior from their parents. While 33% of U.S. teens admit to being cyber bullied, only 7% of U.S. parents admit to being worried about cyber bullying. Bullying is never a subject that can go ignored, not in real life and not over the computer. If bullying remains undetected it can literally mean the difference between life and death. But what can parents do?

There’s no single one right answer to that question, except for “everything they can”. One good measure to take is to learn more about the activities your child engages in on their mobile phone. Of course parents want to be sure that their children aren’t indulging in any aggressive or solicited behavior harmful to themselves or others. Software such as mSpy makes that possible.

mSpy is highly advanced smartphone monitoring software designed to provide a safer and more controlled smartphone experience at home or in the office. It captures an impressive range of data from Android and iOS mobile devices, allowing users to monitor and track call logs, emails, text messages, browsing history, social networks, multimedia content, and location.  In addition, mSpy can record keystrokes, restrict calls from undesired numbers, block access to programs, websites and apps, lock devices and more. mSpy offers 24/7 customer support and has a large network of international online partners. Silver winner of TopTen Reviews 2013, mSpy was created by MTechnology LTD.

Some parents would prefer their children not know that software like mSpy is running. Others are very comfortable making it known they’re going to be using it, but run into questions about phone compatibility or obtaining physical access to the phone. As a response to customer feedback on these and other issues, mSpy has made things even easier by announcing the release of four popular smartphone models preloaded with mSpy monitoring software. The bundles announced this past week include the first-ever consumer ready smartphones with advanced surveillance technology preinstalled.

Currently available on the HTC One, Nexus 5, Samsung Galaxy S4 and iPhone 5s, consumers worldwide no longer have to worry about smartphone compatibility with the software or obtaining physical access to the target phone. The bundle includes a one-year subscription to the premium mSpy software, capturing a wide range of mobile data, including calls, emails, SMS, keystrokes, Viber, WhatsApp and Skype chats, location and more. Pricing for the bundle varies and includes the price of the phone plus the subscription to the premium package. As a key player in the growing space of monitoring, mSpy is planning on expanding their offerings to include more smartphone models and additional surveillance features.

“The mSpy software bundle is in direct response to the feedback we have been receiving from our customers,” said Andrei Shimanovich, COO of mSpy. “For the first time, people can now purchase a top-of-the-line smartphone which is preinstalled with a multi-functional cell phone tracker. It’s a perfect solution not just for individuals, but also for businesses.”

Originally designed as a parental control tool, mSpy runs in stealth mode without interference to the targeted device’s daily operations. mSpy aggregates the activity in a cloud-based, password-protected control panel, where users can perform remote commands like blocking access to certain programs, websites and apps, restricting incoming calls, locking the phone and more. The software bundle also offers benefits for small business owners seeking a cost-effective monitoring program for company-owned devices. Given that 40% of mSpy customers use the software to track their kids, individuals wishing to keep tabs on their significant others may find such an offer increasingly appealing as well.
