Thing is, this isn't the only "lost productivity" activity going on in the workplace. I used to work at a dealership, and they probably lost 5-7 hours PER DAY to smoke breaks. Bathroom breaks, those are tough, because if you gotta go, you'd better. Those of course can be abused, but it's a tough one to crack down on.
But, yes, 'net usage can be a problem, and personal phone calls. But, if they are going to crack down on one, they need to hit 'em all.
