In the case of a reserve guy, home may be out of position.
But yeah I never use the thing for anything but work, just sometimes I need to have it with me so can I can take it to work. I'm not even gaming the system but if I have to call in legit sick they don't need any insight into my lifestyle or travels.

This ensures double security since the company will be monitoring and thus a witness.

It’s less nefarious than all of this. In fact it is the pilot who physically gives them their location instead of the opposite.
You wouldn’t log on to the company website from Cancun. Yet the EFB will immediately call home to check for updates.
No pinging required.

They also have the ability to look at your travel history, when you checked in through KCM, or the fact that you said I can't make the commute in time for the reserve call out today and they ask where you were yesterday on the first day of your bucket.
