Well, it is a jurisdiction issue.
While I agree with you, many countries with good work laws do limit what employers are actually allowed to see from their employees' data.
Meaning if the company lets someone go based on data they capture, and it was the kind of illegal one, then they better prepare to sign up some checks.
For example, on Germany a company is not allowed to make use of how long one is online to create some kind of productivity measure.
The problem is that many prefer not to bother with work law, not even "work law for dummies" kind of books.
