I think the most interesting part is

> I think everyone expects their employer to track them to some extent. It is pretty standard practice for employers to monitor and run analysis on things like building badge swipes and the amount of time spent connected when working from home. It has also become very common place for employers to record audio and video at the office.

That sounds dystopian to me already (maybe because I'm not in the US? Or haven't spend much time at BigCorp? But is that really the default minimum these days?)

If you asked someone 10-20 years ago if that description sounded dystopian, would you be more likely to get a "yes definitely" than you are today?

I'm way more worried by the dystopia society accepts as "normal" than one that is forced on us and that we could potentially fight against.
