1st of all: sounds incredibly controlling.

They could also work on things in their free time and to be honest, as long as they do their work you shouldn't need to care. You only buy 8h of their time usually.

Camera off: Oh shit, I don't want to be watched in larger zoom meetings

Sharing one tab at the time: Crazy. How dare them.

LinkedIn is none of your business. It's their private profile and they can do whatever the hell they want with that.

I am not saying they aren't overemployed but your behavior isn't exactly at its best either.

Sure, but none of the above things would ever merit a mention. I don't care about any of these particular things. But when all of them are combined it's a red flag. So I looked into it and it turned out I was right. I bought 8h of his time but was getting maybe 2 or 3 and no attention. For every 5 commits to our repos, there were about 35 to other private repos, and it was happening throughout our workday.
