This is already true in certain areas of the public sector. Florida, for instance, has broad public records laws. Since any written communication with a government employee about government business must be archived, the institution I was formerly affiliated with couldn't implement IM unless we enabled archiving for every IM conversation (probably not all conversation were subject to the rule, so you err on the side of caution and record them all).
