A gal I know was called in by her boss awhile back. “What’s this nassdack you’re looking at?” the boss demanded. “Huh?” my friend responded.
“What’s this nassdack you’re looking at?” the boss repeated.
Turned out my friend was taking quick peeks at Nasdaq quotes, and her boss was spying on her.
Stupid boss.
Big Brother has a keyboard beneath your fingers.
Hint for office workers - get a cell phone for personal communications and web use. (And use the cell connection, not the office wi-fi.) Anyone stupid enough to use the work computer to view porn should be fired for stupidity. (I knew a lawyer that did that, and did get fired).
If you are on company time, you should be working.
We know this monitoring is NEVER done to government employees. Washington DC has the laziest, overpaid woke hacks, and can never be fired. So when they aren’t monitoring conservatives they are watching porn on their company computers, all day long.
Looking at you FBI hacks. /spit
I thought they already did.
There was a CDC worker I heard about, in the late 1990’s, who not only downloaded porn on his work computer, it was CHILD porn.
Needless to say, he was escorted off the property in handcuffs.
Yes, and this has been the case for some time now. Totalitarian bosses gonna Totalitarian, and jump at any opportunity at it.
If your employer does this, it is a good sign that you need to find another job. Bosses who micromanage are productivity killers.
I’ve also heard stories of employees holding multiple positions with multiple employers simultaneously.
Devastating lack of trust all around.
Bfl
I work at a large east coast med-center - university. A few years back, an exec was caught red-handed with kiddie porn on his office laptop. It was all swept under the rug.
Even now, there are stupid people. One of my daughters is an HR manager.
She’s told me stories.
Assume that everything connected to the corporate network is spying on you. My take-home laptop from work has crowdstrike software on it.
We even have cameras watching us at work, not hidden cameras, visible cameras.
I used to run the server and endpoint security systems at the bank. We logged EVERYTHING because of federal regulations. On more than one occasion we received warrants for information we had which resulted in employees being perp walked out and summarily fired as a result.
Anyone with porn of any kind automatically terminated and if it was kiddie porn we notified the authorities. I had one case where a contractor was stalking an ex girlfriend using built in HP print server software on some network printers.
I found that a day or so before we got the warrant to produce all the logging info we had on the guy. I’d pulled all that info together to give to our cyber security analysts for action. Naperville, IL police perp walked the consultant out that morning, he got a 6 year prison sentence thanks to the info we had on him.
Deserved it.
I have a more serious answer for you but no time right now....
A while back one of our DBA’s was running a porn site on one of our server farms, going so far as to have it on the company network. Another handcuff case.
Good advice...
LOL! Dude couldn't afford 20 bux a month???!?
He was making good money off the site for a couple of months.
