Not sure if it is. The article has a pretty good body of real-world evidence of the supposed curve, and I’ve personally had a colleague let-go because of the information gathered through “bossware.”

Well, according to the sidebar, it was "optimized for Netscape Navigator". It seems to have hit that mark.

nothing tin foil about, these are all serious real world issues that have been documented and this is a good roundup of them.
If the issues are tin-foil, please point us at the articles that debunk the issues described..

The article is well-researched and sourced. Lots of blue underlined text that you can click on to learn more.
Reality is stranger than fiction.

I like the design but it's a bit difficult to link to I find. One of my favourite web sites with a lot of well thought out content.

nit: it's better stated as "any measurement becomes a target".
Reading the article, I had a pang of hope. If it's really as anti-effectual as described, perhaps just everyone needs to buy mouse jiggling dongles and the push behind the immediate trend will lose momentum.
Or really, it's just another step in the corporate-Keynesian make-busy-work economy that has gobbled up most of our productivity gains for decades.

There's an election coming up in Sweden.
One of the parties is literally advertising their platform with "more security cameras on our streets" (Moderaterna), and every party is keen to expand police power to have more surveillance and wiretapping without prior criminal suspicions (at least according to the "Election compass" on SVT: https://valkompass.svt.se/2022)
