I wonder if that's ethical? Why do you need to access the chat data? Do you
want to look into conversations?...
ya i want to look into conversation
The company I used to work for (Vericept, http://www.vericept.com) and
their competitors make and market such a product. When I left the
company in early 2006, there were *no* free equivalents and it was a
non-trivial problem to match up the two sides of the conversation for
chat, IM, etc. This software tends to be quite expensive (e.g., several
thousand dollars).
We strongly recommended that users of the product publish an "acceptable
use policy" and notify their users that network use would be monitored.
There doesn't seem to be any legal obstacle to such monitoring in the
U.S. but I think some countries don't allow it. In fact, some U.S. laws
almost make it a requirement for certain businesses (financial, health,
etc.).
Cheers,
Dave
