Covenant Eyes

I'm a user of covenant eyes --accountability software for the Mac (it's also available for the pc).

It doesn't filter or even slow down my computer, but it works in the background to log internet usage onto their server. Then once a week it sends it to my accountability partner - which is my wife Patti. Hit a questionable site and it flags it. Hit something on the edge and it flags it. Hit something you don't think is on the edge but is, it will flag it. It's relentless.

Once covenant eyes is installed, you can't get on the internet without first logging in and you can't uninstall it without getting an uninstall code. If you ask for one, they notify your accountability partner.

It provides peace of mind and accountability - both of which I need.
