"EVV establishes distrust as a baseline in a relationship that is fundamentally about trust"
 

From Jake Metcalf's When Verification Is also Surveillance:

"EVV adds an extra layer of intrusion because it unilaterally alters the labor-management relationship between PCA and client while offloading audit responsibility to the client.  EVV establishes distrust as a baseline in a relationship that is fundamentally about trust."
