It introduces the problem of employers using Internet usage policies that authorize secret surveillance, supported by studies on monitoring prevalence and blocking practices. The paper contrasts traditional surveillance with electronic surveillance, highlighting covert methods like keystroke logging and stealth installation. It weighs legitimate security and legal concerns against privacy and autonomy costs, addressing morale, trust, and the ambiguity of productivity
