I think you misunderstand me. If someone wants to surveil me and play politics with it, I will question whether they have nudes of my kids and wife.

You're morally right, but they'd flip it around and ask why you chose to create a situation where inappropriate images are being stored on company infrastructure.

If he doesn't know they're recording then he isn't creating that situation.

"How fucking dare you body shame my wife and kids!?" Now I'm threatening to call local news.

You see, its not really about having an airtight case to win a billion dollar settlement. It's about being able to bluster your way out of a situation that's trying to be used against you.

If you have anticipate having to bluster like this... wouldn't you be better off figuring out how to live without working that job in the first place?

As far as I've been made aware I don't work in a place where I have to worry about it.

“That’s a violation of the non-disparagment agreement that you signed. No severance for you.”

It’s cat and mouse.

“No, our suite detects nudity and automatically deletes related imagery.”

My home decor is now exclusively tasteful nudes.

"I have a TV set right behind me displaying porn 24/7"

Wasn't this the game that some police officers in the US engaged in? Nothing illegal about them blasting Lady Gaga or whatever is popular while they work. But if you record the audio, you're unlikely to be able to share it anywhere without explicit permission from the rightsholders.

If posted the riaa minions would detect the copyright audio and automatically copyright strike it

It looks like it may work, but on the downside you'll need to listen to Lady Gaga ... oh well.
