I think the real issue, that has nothing to do with osquery or any specific piece of software, is the corp being able to push any software on worker's computers and spy on their employees secretly. I call it the stalker IT employee problem or the psychopathic manager / lawyer problem. The solution will be legal I think in the end, like in some european countries that don't let you do this kind of surveillance on your employees. And if you want to look at an employee's work emails, you do it in front of them with their lawyer present. I'm glad you guys are trying to keep some semblance of privacy although.
