I also work from home and use my work laptop for work only. Not even googling stuff, nothing. Just work. Never even opened the media player or went to youtubes website once.
I have my own computer running on a separate screen and I can do and watch whatever the fuck I want during working hours. I can play a game or watch a movie and nobody knows. Its that simple.
Same with phones. Never use work phone for personal stuff.
Its not even being tech savvy, just common sense ffs.
-
This is the way.
-
Same here. It also removes some hassle when changing jobs. All of your personal stuff is on the computer you own and all of the work stuff is on the the computer the company owns. Just turn in your work laptop and you're done with that place and on to the next.

I work in the IT department for my company so I know for a fact that there's no monitoring on the work laptops, which is super strange but whatever.
Still I wouldn't use the work laptop for anything other than work activities because despite the fact I 100% know there's no monitoring I still don't trust it. Besides, It's unprofessional, and although I don't really care about that all that much, it's good to get into the habit of not doing personal activities on a work laptop, because one day they might start monitoring, and this way I'm already in the habit of not doing anything personal.

Additionally, never connect your phone to the company WiFi
-
Definitely if they require you to use sso, but if it's just guest wifi that anyone with a password can access, I wouldn't worry about monitoring.

Why is he watching it inside the remote connection window instead of his own browser?
-
I have been working from home for years and my employer is not watching our screen. However about a decade ago we received a company wide email from an admin reminding everyone that they can see DNS requests when we're connected to the VPN.
-
Sounds like he's remoting into the computer in the office from another computer at home (pretty common in IT since you probably have admin tools perfectly configured on that computer and specifically configured for its network config) but with Windows Remote Access it lets the person physically at the computer see everything by default. But i would really hope that someone in IT would be painfully aware of why you shouldn't do sensitive personal browsing on a work computer or a work network

-
Remember anything you do on a company pc is probably contractually property of the company. So not only should you never use your company pc for private browsing you should never do anything on it besides your work for the company.
-
You'd be shocked how many of my coworkers use company phones and computers as if they were personal devices both during off time and office hours.
-
Remember the rules are different outside America and - trends predict - better for the employee.

I do wonder about some people's critical thinking skills. If you are connected to a VPN obviously you are connected to whatever monitoring system your company has set up. Use a brain and use a different device.
-
If I had employees I would seriously fire them for watching porn on a company laptop, not because I care that they're watching porn and not doing their work but because it's indicative of a major problem with thinking clearly.
-
Porn ❌
Job websites ✅
Just to remind them they ain't shit
-
Give them a bad review on glassdoor. Really drive the knife in.

Accidents happen, I for sure know this. Especially when you're sick, or overworked, or just sleep deprived.
Even moreso if you only have 1 desk and use a KVM.
It'd be nice if comments like yours would give folks a second thought instead of riding in on a high horse just to shit on someone and leave. It's not what we need on Lemmy.

Hey Gary, could you help me? I couldn’t find out how to get you camera access too.
-
The hilarious thing is how understanding they were about it. xD
-
Gary has Calum's back.
-
-
Why would you ever do anything besides work on a work computer? Noob.
-
People in this thread who question critical thinking skills but fail to identify the most obvious staged content of the week on lemmy.
Thanks
Gary

Rookie mistake. You VNC to the office in one window and porn locally.

Habitually using your own machine for non-work tasks often lets you keep certain records of the research process which begat the work, even while the client/employer owns the work itself through SLA/NDA/AOI. This typically includes records contributing to general “personal expertise,” such as query history, bookmarks, generalized notes, and other non-proprietary information.
It also lends to an overall impression of professional sprezzatura when the client can only see a history of master strokes, without the nitty-gritty details of your autodidactic effort.

sprezzatura
In short: professional rizz
-
Oooooo, good word.

-
The lack of an apostrophe for “Can see you’re logged in” is unreasonably irritating to this grammatical pedant.
-
that's not a lack of apostrophe. your is just a different word. if there were a lack of apostrophe it would have said youre.
-
Calum: I can't come in today, but boy am I gonna cum.
-
The stage was set and Calum gave them a show. 👏

This is why keeping work accounts, machines, and activities separate is always a good idea. In this case Gary did have "something to hide".
Nonsense! Calum is doing what Calum does at home. If the company doesn't want to see it they shouldn't be watching him like that when he's at home.
Remember: Calum isn't feeling well. Any doctor would say Calum is doing his part to get better and stay healthy!
Calum is using a work machine for personal actuvities, though. A little Youtube never hurt anyone but straight-up watching porn “between enquiries”, which sounds like during work hours or something, is kinda not on.
Work shouldn’t distrust employees this much and these measures never lead to increased productivity but Calum is also a complete fucking idiot.
You seem to misunderstand. The tech isn't saying, "Hey, we're watching you,", they're saying, "Hey, your monitor here at work is showing off everything you're doing and everyone in the office can see."
Calum is expelling his demons and should recover twice as fast!
Akshually - jizzing will take valuable energy and resources away from getting better.
When I used to travel for work, I carried two laptops despite the hassle.
A decade ago, I watched a scientist at a conference plug his laptop in to the conference room, wake it up, sync to the Big Screen, load xvideos tab he had up, and then watched him flounder for a good 20 seconds to try to figure out how to close it and save face before loading a PowerPoint.
If BYOD was allowed I'd probably get a laptop with two M.2 drives and keep work and personal on separate OSs on separate drives, both encrypted so they can't access each other's files.
Best of both worlds.
