Just curious, how many attorneys have actually come to you to document the existence of computer monitoring software so that their clients can use this information against their spouse? I'm guessing quite a few, yes?

Counting smartphones, slightly more than once a month on average. I'm not usually told the reasons, but I would guess that about half of them are issues with spouses and significant others.

If you want to read something more authoritative than semi-anonymous internet banter, there's a female attorney on the East coast who runs an I.T. forensic business. She's co-written papers and conducted seminars on the subject:
