You may think the data is yours, but the equipment is theirs, and employers reserve the right to micromanage all the bits and packets on their networks, computers and mobile devices. Theres no such thing as unreasonable search and seizure when it comes to company property, and the surveillance tools used by IT departments are getting stealthier and more powerfuland more heavily funded each yearAnybody that's using a company PC and thinks that they're not being monitored should probably think again. If you're at work (for a company with a decent sized IT department) and on FR right now, chances are your employer is aware of it. Food for thought.

It usually takes no more than 2 hours for FR to get unlocked. I can only conclude that someone in the executive management likes FR and scalds the butts of the internet Cary Nations in IT.

I kept having trouble with our IT people blocking me from conservative websites. If I went to Rush everyday, suddenly it would be blocked. Same with Laura Ingraham website. It never happened with FR though. I think they just were'nt saavy enough to know what it was. I experimented and went to Air America for a few days. Nothing happened. It was easy to tell that it was personal. This was just lunchtime surfing, mind you. I resolved the issue by bringing my own laptop from home.
