When I confronted them and asked if they had a warrant they said "no, but it's ok because you don't have any plants".
It seems that we have evolved (devolved?) to the point where many folks think this is ok. If you are not doing anything illegal then you have nothing to hide, no problem.
I didn't think it was ok then, and still don't. I know it's not exactly the same thing, but where exactly is the line for invasion of privacy drawn? Am I paranoid because I would like my right to privacy to be respected?
Did you sue for violation of your civil rights?
It's expensive to fight legal battles, and most people have neither the money nor the time these days. I think we need a new framework for citizens to fight back.
The cool thing about us living in a remote rural county is if we figure out that framework, we could organize and start fixing things, at least at the local level. Local officials seem to be a lot more scared of protests, lawyers, and legal threats than state and federal.

I think it’s the extra work involved.
Unless there’s overtime.

Thanks randomq and SBH, but I'm being repressed.

Of course not. For the reasons you stated and a couple more.

For those of you worried about how you're being monitored, here are a few tips so your emails are less like Big Brother:
Tracking pixels can report the times and dates their associated email was opened, as well as the location of the device used, and the email client involved. That's a lot of data to feed back to a third-party that you might not know much about.
You might not be able to do much about the use of these tracking pixels, but you can take steps to stop them from functioning, and to see which messages include them—so you know which people and which companies are taking a particular interest in you, and you can choose who to allow and who not to.

There's a setting to disable "fetch all the links in this email". There's also not using a browser to read email in the first place.

There's also not using a browser to read email in the first place.
I used an email program some years ago for contacting customers (MailChimp? I can’t remember for certain).
One of the features allowed me to see which recipients opened the email and presumably read it. It worked with browsers or dedicated email programs.
