Under the guise of protecting children, emotional relationships, as well as checking workers in companies, a few Serbian websites offer digital espionage services, i.e. software for monitoring mobile devices and computers. This legally poorly regulated trade allows individuals with malicious intentions to simply abuse, while "stores", on the other hand, offer products by practically checking nothing, keeping no records, justifying that the responsibility for potential abuses rests solely with the clients. Although you need to own the target phone to install the software, there are many ways to do it seamlessly. In other words, these "stalerkware" softwares create the possibility for everyone to eavesdrop on everyone in their environment.

- What does the law say?
