Peter asks two important and relevant questions. 
I am sharing my reply below.

>>> some PIs may not want to be part of this, and to those I ask you meet me individually so I understand why you don’t want to
>>> some PIs may have peculiar grants and funding from industry that forbid this kind of data logging. and for those, I request you email me and tell me exactly why, which program, which students and staff should be exempt from logging.
