Lobby to change the rules because they're ridiculous, or develop a method that makes it impossible for them to get caught?

It just makes no sense to me on the face of it. What do you do if they have a chat in the pub after work, bug the table?

For clarification, a chat in the pub is not “written communication”, and therefore has a different rule.

Yes, it’s dumb, and your point stands.
