Employee tracking isn't anything new or all that surprising. Do everything as if it is going to be made public at some point. EMPLOYERS ARE NOT YOUR FRIENDS. If they buy you internet, they are tracking it. If they provide you with a computer, they are tracking every click and pointer movement. Keep work computers and personal computers separate and that includes all methods of IO. I used to work for a Fortune 10 company, and they retroactively changed their approach to personal data on company computers. Yes, does it sound illegal? Very much NOT so, but they totally got away with it. ....Except there was an accidental malformed script that wiped all the user folders and backup data. Ever wonder what happens to a SAN when every disk shits itself for a few days? I'll never really know what the outcome of the malformed script was except there was no retroactive application of corporate rules because the thing the rules were meant to apply to simply didn't exist anymore. Coincidentally, it was also the same day that I quit and decided to work for myself. "Malformed script"
