Since I've written all manner of custom scripts that snoop into application logfiles, databases, etc., trying to dig up dirt on misbehaving apps, the user community has nicknamed my Hobbit installation "The Eye of Sauron".
It kind of fits!
In the second volume, The Two Towers, Tolkien writes: "The Eye: that horrible growing sense of a hostile will that strove with great power to pierce all shadows of cloud, and earth, and flesh, and to see you: to pin you under its deadly gaze, naked, immovable."
