So while everyone has been talking about Mike Johnson's use of #CovenantEyes, that anti-porn "accountability software", one thing that is missing from the conversation is the sheer misogyny. When a reporter signed up for it, they discovered that women's bodies are—for the purposes of this software—porn

I tried Mike Johnson’s favorite anti-porn app. It didn’t go well

The US House speaker is a longtime user of Covenant Eyes, in which an ‘accountability partner’ tracks the content on your phone

Proposed script for an ad for #CovenantEyes:

(Father walks in on son in the bathroom in a compromising situation.)

Father: Son, you'll go blind doing that!

Son: Dad, I'm over HERE!

@lilithsaintcrow
What I find most implausible about #CovenantEyes is the notion that #MikeJohnson's son is going to carefully review his father's boring web traffic looking for porn. He'll promise to check, and then blow it off, which is precisely what his father wants him to do.

Did Mike Johnson give his browser history to his wife? No he did not.

It uses "AI", cost $18.99/month, is unreliable at working/tracking phone usage and has previously been flagged by Google for how much personal data it collects

You've seen the headlines about #MikeJohnson & Son by now. Would you be shocked to find out the story of #CovenantEyes gets much, much stranger?
Tell your friends, parents and kids if you have any of those.

Covenant Eyes, beloved by some Evangelicals, takes constant screenshots of the user’s activity. Unsurprisingly, the legal system has found a use for it too.

House Speaker Mike Johnson once promoted software he used to monitor his porn usage. Josh Duggar and Lamar Odom used the same program.

Mike Johnson used porn monitoring software. So did Josh Duggar and Lamar Odom.

Mike Johnson promoted Christian software Covenant Eyes, which monitors a user's internet activity across all their devices. Josh Duggar and Lamar Odom have used it too.

I knew something like this was going to happen-
I’m eschewing most news outlets for the sake of my sanity; but I wanted to know wtf was going on, so I typed “Mike Johnson Pornhub” into Duck Duck Go. The first four results were kind of disgusting, but had the info I was looking for.
The fifth result was from Pornhub itself. (It turns out quite a few people there share a surname with the US SotH.)

Really good point. I was so distracted by the revolting inappropriate boundary issues, I didn't even think of #infosec issues.

Looks like "The Covenant" is now in possession of a lot more than just Johnson's porn.

Now its US state secrets, too. #covenanteyes #spying
