European Court of Human Rights: Personal calls and Internet usage from 
work are (maybe) protected.

By Nate Anderson.

A Welsh university employee has successfully sued the UK government in 
the European Court of Human Rights over surveillance that was conducted 
while the woman was an employee at Carmarthenshire College. According to 
the complaint, the woman's e-mail, phone, Internet, and fax usage were 
all monitored by the Deputy Principal (DP) of the college, who appears 
to have taken a sharp dislike to her. According to the complaint, the DP 
believed that the woman was using college facilities for personal use 
too often, and began collecting evidence about her activity. The woman 
claimed that her human rights were being abused, and pointed 
specifically to Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights 
(PDF), which governs private and family life.
