Who might do this? This is often done by employers to ensure their employees are staying on task and using the work-provided internet connection appropriately. Parents might monitor internet access to be sure their children aren't doing illicit things online. Cyber criminals also monitor usage.
How is it done? Sometimes software is installed directly on to the computer that will be monitored. Examples are Spectre Pro and eBlaster. Occasionally, one's ISP (Internet Service Provider) might intercept information if they are suspicious of criminal activity online. Finally, sometimes information is intercepted by a 3rd party, such as hackers who usually do not have good intentions.
