I don't honestly expect there to not be access control especially at a big tech company, but for me when its Facebook doing it I can't help but think there's some MBA that might put you in a "bottom 5%" productive employee cohort because your usage patterns just so happen to correlate with less productive employees. They could of course do that almost anywhere as a lot of business IT tracking software is ubiquitous especially in tech, but it feels more likely at FB.

I work at Facebook. I would say it's less likely there than elsewhere that I have worked due to how the review cycle is set up. People have this strange idea that Facebook is some kind of top down panopticon.
