Hell, lets measure blood sugar and blood pressure while we're at it.

Obviously I was just kind of joking about the productivity, this is obviously about avoiding health care costs whenever possible. But companies do block internet at work (as is their right), have policies to limit personal calls (as is their right), and can test for drugs and alcohol if they wish (trucking companies effectively requiring it). Monitoring toilet breaks is just ####ed up and any company that did that would be outed quickly.
