Hello,
As I've checked, there's currently no initiative against extensive Surveillance performed by some corporations in the European Union. I propose an initiative to introduce some of the following:
- Ensure employee and contractor rights against unwarranted, extensive surveillance,
- Maximise personal privacy to ensure work-life balance in all forms of work (office, hybrid, remote),
- Reduce intrusion of business elements into private life of individuals.
As of today, this is not respected in many cases. I've stumbled upon one of more interesting cases, where the employer enrolls spyware on employee laptops to monitor screen time activity, keyboard activity, amount of clicks and keystrokes per minute, amount of 'unproductive time', time spent on each action, time spent idling, and more.
These bits of data are then fed to the Big Data, which then results in 'non-performing' employees being faced with consequences at their work.
In my opinion, this is unethical and akin to a modern version of 'slavery' with large amount of invigilation.
As I do not have the necessary people to create this initiative, feel free to reach out to me to create it (whether as participant, or organiser).
Thank you for reading.
