I’m just saying that they’ve been collecting this info for years. Keyloggers, etc. are on all the computers you’re given. Employees didn’t have any expectation of privacy - just a hope. Now, it’s clear it’s completely gone and so the hope and goodwill is gone.

I was curious about this claim and I dug up this article from 2024. https://www.forbes.com/advisor/business/software/internet-su...

It's an employee survey so it's not resistant to claims that the number is higher than people know. But I think saying "on all the computers you're given" is an exaggeration at best.

I did think it was interesting that "One in three [employees] have had activity from their employer’s online surveillance used in their performance reviews."

Sounds like if you're being surveilled by your employer there is a good chance you know about it.

I've never experienced anything like that, so it's sort of a window into another world from my perspective.
