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.
Coming from IT:
A: Disagree; it’s logged, analyzed, and stored in the name of efficiency.
B: Yes, but also no. Stopping malware is the original idea. But why would a business stop there when they can pressure 2% more time out of you by assigning ametric for everything?
C: Fair
D: It is if there’s budget cuts/Boss dislikes you. Leaving evidence of you not working on company time can be an anchor around your neck.
E: Yes, until no. See D.
I agree using work internet for personal shit isn’t career suicide, but it just opens the door for shit that isnt needed. Frivolous work internet usage is an example of “Free to those who can afford it, very expensive for those who can’t”.
Just use Data if you can, or shitpost after your shift
