AT&T corporate environment

from slashdot:

AT&T is requiring thousands of employees who work from their homes to return to traditional office environments, sources say. 'It is a serious effort to reel in the telework people,' says the Telework Coalition's Chuck Wilsker, who has heard that as many as 10,000 or 12,000 full-time teleworkers may be affected. One AT&T employee says rumors have been circulating since AT&T's merger with SBC that the new upper management is not supportive of teleworking: 'We'd heard rumors to that effect, and all of a sudden we got marching orders to go back to an office.'"

my thoughts on this:

there are heady times ahead. AT&T knows that it has leak problems by employees, regarding its operations with the government, surrounding Total Information Awareness.

The law presently permits corporations to run Total Surveillance on their employee's workplace computers such as remote desktop viewing and keylogging, which they likely cannot yet do completely if their employees are at home.

There are important reasons that they feel that they must keep every employee under strict and absolute surveillance at this time, until such time that they are able to lock in Total Immunity for themselves.
