The correct answer is obviously C, and it doesn't require any supporting material to be justified. But, like with the other questions, I like to provide a reference to the IAPP source when available. This one can be found in the The IAPP textbook, U.S. Private-Sector Privacy, 4th Edition, 2024, Section 12.4.4.1 Legal Obligations or Incentives to Monitor Employees, which reads: "Although monitoring can be justified to increase productivity by keeping employees on task, there can be serious privacy concerns from excessive video monitoring (such as in changing rooms), monitoring of workplace conversations (such as bugs secretly placed by a supervisor to listen to employees), email and other computer monitoring (such as when emails that an employee believes are personal are reviewed by the employer or screen recording for productivity management)."

Obviously C. What more invasion of employee privacy can one have evidence of than this? Use of videos in bathrooms?
