That's a thing? Or are you talking about endpoint security?

I'm speaking in abstract because it never happened to me.

But stuff like this, I suppose: https://www.businessinsider.com/how-bosses-use-employee-tracking-software-for-remote-workers-2023-8?op=1

And then actively using/reviewing these to create competition between people, and/or change how people choose to work.

I kind of get the passive use, and the extreme cases, where people are not delivering and then you find they are not actually working, in retrospect.

That kind of stuff definitely would have me leaving or never accepting the job. That's straight up spying - although, most of use use Google or Apple phones and are somehow fine with it 🤷
