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.

    This is what you should be doing on all corporate networks. What personal sites you go to is none of their business.

    Alternatively, don’t use their network and use your cell connection, but for some people, that’s not gonna work, I know.

          No, even on company equipment is isn’t. That equipment was paid for by the employees so it’s their right to use it

        Nah, they sure do want to know, though. It’s not businesses business to know what book you are reading on lunch break, it’s not businesses business to know what newspaper you are reading at work, it’s not businesses business to know what social media sites you are reading.
