Imagine a glass ceiling with a girl in a skirt standing on it\man in a kilt 
standing on it and you're standing under the ceiling someone tells you not to 
look up. Do you not lookup or at somepoint  lookup ? - even if you did not mean 
to - via a mirror or some other third party method. The fact that you can means 
at somestage you may do what you were not supposed to see even if if you had no 
intention of doing so. Applying this analogy to Mr Rustons scenario they may be 
trusted and do it or they may have no intention of doing so -  but have the 
interlect of a tibetian Yak and do it anyway. Another Guinness please......

Tell them not to?

Seriously, if something is being put in place for a reason and it is
explained to them, why would they want to go and work against it? Isn't
the person implementing it someone in a position of authority to say
"this is how we'll solve this problem"?

As always... "there are seldom good technological solutions to
behavioural problems".

Given this is all hypothetical, and yet to be a problem, but you get
what I am regurgitating here.

My $0.02 inc GST.
