I'm talking about the ethics as i personally see it, not legal questions.

Assuming the employer has a policy totally prohibiting

the internet, the only ethical thing for Foo to do is to remind Baz to edit
from home.
This would be true in all situation unless it were specifically part of
Foo's normal functions to detect & report violations of this policy--and in
that case i would be concerned whether Foo may have trapped Baz by inducing
him to violate it.

Well, let's break this down into slightly
more abstract, essential
elements
and questions:
Users Foo and Baz are in a dispute. Baz edits from work, sometimes. Foo
realizes this, and says they're going to contact Baz's employer to
inform
them of this workplace policy violation.
Is this a problem?
Does it matter if Foo and Baz work for the same employer?
Does it matter if that employer is a government agency?
