Auditing an entire year's log seems very excessive. However, timestamps are recorded, focus is recorded, and I've heard of cheaters being caught from this information. It's not the main feature, but Canvas is partly a forensic tool.
And from my own observation, having a file open in the background with no focus does send occasional requests for other random file metadata that aren't open at all (edit: only for four minutes after load, and then a ping indefinitely), so that's probably a source of the false accusations. Also, it's open source if any hackers would like to take a look.
