tl;dr: Summary not available
HN Discussion:
  • ↑Surveillance is a pretext for soft layoffs or forcing return-to-office, not productivity
  • ↑Storing invasive employee surveillance data creates serious privacy and liability risks
  • ↑Such invasive monitoring violates human rights and should be illegal, as European precedent shows
  • ↑Employer may be violating disability accommodation laws given the employee's health condition
  • ↑Productivity should be judged by outcomes, not screen time or webcam presence
