So, the tldr is: you shouldn't spy on your kids, but the social pressure to do so is enormous. In some cases it can hurt your kids and in others it can help. The best way to handle it is to ask your kids about what you want to know.

In other words, technology is transforming how adolescents pull away from parents as much as it is everything else, and we still don't know what we are doing.

This article could be summed up with: start talking WITH your children at a young age and continue to do that throughout their life and you will know more than you would find via snooping. Invasion of privacy will damage your relationship and simply cause the child to be more secretive and aloof.
