Weither or not you have good or evil admins they are not gods. Just because they administer networks and systems doesn't mean that should have access to the data on the systems and the network they administer. Either way... there's no such thing as absolute security and using EFS, Private Folders, other data encryption mechanisms makes it much harder to compromise data confidentiality. If I use the same logic about bypassing protection mechanisms than I can say that a safe in a secret bunker with an army of guards can't protect CEO's data either... All I have to do is inject him with a poison that activates within 2 hours if an antidote is not given...
