“This morning, when journalists at London’s Daily Telegraph went to work, they discovered small, black boxes attacked to their desks with no explanation. After some investigative Google work, the reporters learned that the “OccupEye”-branded boxes were actually motion-detecting devices. Following the workers’ discovery, the newspaper emailed the staff to let them know that yes, their desk time is now being monitored.
