D seems off to me; I don’t think the Constitution provides much protection for employees in private sectors regarding monitoring.

I recall a practice question that mentioned lawsuits limiting monitoring, so C could be a contender, but I’m not confident about it.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like B might be misleading. I thought monitoring was pretty broad across most industries, not just specific ones.
EV

I think A is the right answer because I remember reading that employers can pretty much monitor anything as long as they inform employees.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully read through the code and think about how the find_end function works with the custom Compare functor.
