Good luck living like this:
Your employer can track your every move
Employee surveillance technology has reached a new level of eery sophistication. Tech firms are offering corporations the power to track their workers' app use, web browsing activity, keystrokes, and time spent at their work stations, reports The Guardian.
One firm, Crossover, even offers a feature that lets employers take photos of workers via webcam every 10 minutes. Another company, Qumram, offers a mobile app that allows employers to monitor all activities on employee devices. While such surveillance is intended to detect and address legal and company policy violations, harassment, and other workplace problems, some warn that it opens the door to abuse and violations of privacy.
