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.
You’re using personal software like Lemmy on your company phone?
No, I was asking if you did
That was my response. You shouldn’t be doing personal tasks on a work phone. Has that ever been a thing corporations wouldn’t immediately fire you for? VPN or not, NSFW or SFW, don’t browse Lemmy or other social media on your work devices. Ever. Depending on who you work for, it could even be highly illegal, especially if it’s a government job.
There’s some at mine that don’t even have a personal and I don’t get it. You leave and have to change your number and deal with all that crap plus if you have to have an account sent you a text.
They told me that was an option an I was like Fuuuuck no, I keep that shit separate. I still get calls on my work phone when the previous guys kid needs to be picked up from daycare.
