You are assuming US rules here, invasive monitoring of employees can be illegal in other countries.

  Sure, true. But I would bet that, whatever the country, a pile of people at every large company are trying to monitor the maximum amount of your activity they can without breaking the law. You used the word "invasive" -- that's of course an ambiguous phrase to the common person, but it's not going to ambiguous to the security/fraud group at a big company. They will know that they can do X but not Y, and they will do the most of X that they can.

  It varies, for sure, but more security sensitive organisations like... anything that works with computers these days will need to have their systems locked down, which includes access control and possibly internet monitoring, at the very least to block malware websites. As well as a block on VPNs and other ways to circumvent those blocks. Of course, this quickly escalates to "no porn", "no video games", and other non-work things. But those are usually larger organizations where they lose track of individuals and their behaviour.
