5.  It should not be cause for termination, but it sure could be
reason for extra scrutiny, and a need to Tread Particularly Carefully
for the duration of the contract.

It's not as if this is the world of Philip K Dick's "Paycheck", where
you're signing your memories from the last two years away, and they'll
make sure you don't remember what you worked on.

If they're paying to do Internet Photography, then it's reasonable to
expect them to provide access to that.  If they're paying to work on
an Internet appliance, then doing non-appliancy things at work isn't
part of the job.

Working at one's work for 10 months, when at the office, is not a
notably heinous thing.

There's extra justification for not bringing work home, too.
