Why YSK: It appears several Lemmy Instances are flagged as suspicious and at least 1 instance intentionally using the name of ransomware. A couple of the big enterprise monitoring suites (Fortiguard, ZScaler) will flag your account and may end up with you being pulled into an office for an explanation, or worse.
TL;DR: Keep browsing to your local instance at work for now.
Don’t use company computers for personal stuff, it all gets logged and can be used against you at the very least as evidence that you weren’t working come performance reviews.
It’s fucking insane people don’t know this in 2023.
Work computers are for work, and pretty much every employer monitors what you do on it.
And the same goes for company wifi if you have to log in with your own username.
Even if you don’t, there’s plenty of different ways to identify a user on company wifi.
For example, have your cellphone named “Stephano’s iPhone”? Narrows it down to the Stephanos working in range of that access point.
Stay off company resources when using technology for personal use.
Underrated comment right here…
Yall got phones jfc
Just don’t use a work computer for anything but work. Use your personal cell phone and don’t use their wifi.
Browsing personal sites, especially social media, on a work computer is insane
Insane? I wouldn’t go so far, everybody has downtimes from time to time, unless you are doing something crazy… It is fine.
So why not using your personal phone instead?
Never attach a personal device to a company network!!!
Why would people not just use their phones? I would never browse any social media on a work computer.
I find it crazy that you can get in trouble for browsing the wrong websites. It’s illegal where I live to track people’s computers.
