There are countries which forbid such tracking software. Also, big companies usually have labor unions, which will do everything to prevent a company from using such tracking. I think, such software creates more problems than it solves. For example people being measured by artificial performance indicators, which might have nothing to do with the real world (code quality/maintainability, other responsibilities, team work, etc.)
I think, managers do want the software, but I would quit any company forcing me to install tracking software.
