[SQU] The law and proxies?

Hi,

We've always had monitoring and reporting packages running for our proxies. Pwebstats for general proxy info and usage, and sqmgrlog for logging against IP/Username.

I've just turned on Authentication for our main proxy. (Netware 5 LDAP)

We have an Internet Usage policy within our organisation, stating that we do monitor users and their usage. But since I've enabled proxy authentication some people feel this is a violation of there privacy and have started to rant and rave about big brother, unions etc.

So I was wondering what experience other squid cache administrators have had with this.

Is there a law/bill that say's we have the right to monitor the users on our LAN/WAN?
