Also note there are privacy legal issues here. Some opinions are that it is illegal for an employer to secretly watch their employee's Internet content and/or usage. That information is considered the property of the employee. This is why many organizations chose to restrict what their employees can do, apposed to watch what is being done.
If information is being tracked, it should be tracked in a non-biases consistent way, with disclosure, or deployed with an alternate duplicate purpose . For example, if you install a Proxy server, that data will often be available, but it could be defended as a security protection measure.
