The only person who should be scared would be the one filing a frivolous report with the FBI. If you aren’t trolling, I’m pretty sure you are already on their spam filter having done it before. They have list of little babies like yourself who never had a mommy and dream they could be one.
Your feedback has encouraged me to expand the system further as it’s clear I’m on to something big. I’m now taking full screenshots every minute. I had been concerned about disk space growth but with the extra determination you’ve given me to uncover the lazy employees, I discovered a useful tool that compresses similar images. This was important as obviously the slackers even when active with the mouse barely do anything anyway, we have a 15 min inactivity auto disconnection, and it’s occurred to them if they never are logged on they obviously aren’t working, so probably while they watch TV or play video games, they seem to periodically move the mouse to avoid the disconnect. I’ve also been able to turn it into a movie so I can watch the employees work and can already directly confirm this is what is happening, zero WFH while being paid for it.
I do feel I should address your confusion on the legality of this system as it might provide you some relief. The system is 100% legal in the US and EU and under GPDR, you have a flawed mental model of what is happening. We don’t provide them a WFH device, they BYOD any personal computer of their own. We don’t even provide a custom client software, we use off the shelf standard clients, it even works inside a browser window if they chose not to use a better performance local client. We never alter their machine and have no access to their machine. All logging and monitoring is done server side and has nothing to do with their privacy. They do not enter private information into our system, they are explicitly prohibited from doing so, they don’t log into an bank or private email or facebook, nothing, they have no private communication or messages on the corporate system. In fact the system’s access to the public internet is severely restricted and even if it wasn’t they have no purpose in doing so, it would even be a violation of their employee agreement because they would be using company resources and time and that’s cause for termination.
WFH is a much cleaner setup, employees used to complain they couldn’t access Facebook or other wasteful social media sites, of course most just used their phone, but with this setup it’s very clear what is work and what isn’t.
Bottom line all of this is 100% legal and there is nothing you can do about it. It’s pretty pathetic that the idea managers might have ways to watch if you work or not makes you so hot under the collar. I’m sure you are probably one of the slackers that thinks they are fooling the boss by trying to logon each morning and wiggle the mouse while you spank yourself or watch netflix all day.
By the way, we also count the lines of code you write, review your tasks completed, and yep that all confirms you are a loser slacker that we have no trouble terminating. We don’t have to tell you any of that either, we can measure anything we like if we want to, keys pressed, mouse moved, code committed, software bugs caused, bugs patched, hours worked, whatever we like, and no we don’t need any consent for any of those metrics and we don’t need to disclose them either. We pay you to work and your work is our work product, all of it.
