+Intended Use of ActivityWatch
+=============================
+
+Here we hope to clarify the founder's designed usage of ActivityWatch.
+
+.. contents::
+
+Vision and Usage of ActivityWatch
+---------------------------------
+
+The `vision <https://github.com/ActivityWatch/activitywatch/issues/236>`_ of ActivityWatch has always been for the betterment of the user.
+May it be for personal, business, or solely research.
+
+
+Monitoring of Unaware Individuals Using ActivityWatch
+-----------------------------------------------------
+
+In line with ActivityWatch's vision, the users of ActivityWatch should have full consent when they utilize this software.
+
+Data privacy is a right to each individual, and the use of this program to monitor people without their knowledge will go against the design of ActivityWatch.
+
+
+Employee Monitoring Using ActivityWatch
+---------------------------------------
+
+The monitoring of employees to check their activities can cause harm to workers and is inline with illegal employee surveillance.
+
+To accomodate a monitoring feature for enterprises, the ActivityWatch team is currently planning implementations for a new feature (presently called Report) for the program.
+
+
+Report Feature
+--------------
+
+The ` proposed plans <https://github.com/ActivityWatch/activitywatch/issues/233>`_ for the Report feature would be a whitelisting system. Users can whitelist activities they deemed private to report,
+preventing personal data from being leaked.
+
+It would also relay the employers with only work-related activities.
