you're right, my "statement" was too simple.
the pc is not mine, that's right, but my work is. so everything on the PC
that resulted
from my actions is under my responsibility.
As a result, if someone needs to watch my work, then it should be done for
good reasons and I should be informed. and in general, all the reasons are bad
(excluding special situations such as when your coworkers have to access
your work and the like).
PS. When I say that, I personally have nothing to hide (nor does my monkey:).
but "principles are principles" in the same manner that the "law is the law".
cheers,
mouss
