Useful for what?

I am not concerned that someone off-duty was browsing the internet. I couldn't care less about what they do on a break.

My concern was with regard to the potential security issues that it raises. Just firing people after the fact for breaching security is a pretty poor plan. It helps to take appropriate preventative actions, too.
