this article and the quoted research is *wild*. https://www.404media.co/are-overemployed-ghost-engineers-making-six-figures-to-do-nothing/
i've personally worked with "ghost engineers" who get paid double what i make and contribute absolutely nothing. but management is usually aware of them and even complicit in protecting them.
surveillance is going to change nothing (except of course violate the privacy for those who are actually contributing)
