If I understand right, it is tracking work software. So work PCs. I had already assumed anything in a work setting can be used against me. It doesn't make it right, but this won't change my behavior. I already assume corpo-degeneracy is afoot anytime I touch work-tech.
My work is offering free shoes to employees that walk a lot on job sites. I won't be wearing them until I've gone over them as I would not put it past my company to put trackers in them so they can track us on our patrols more.
