Note the comment from GA P I association.
Another case of a catch-22 on a grandiose scale. Any company using their logs, monitors and so on for any action - administrative or crimial - could wind up being charge with a felony for collecting evidence! No telling how enforceable or how enforced, or if only enforced administrative or individually.
