Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience

Of course they can, they literally own the machine. You don't own it, so don't treat it like it's your own private job hunting platform or porn viewer.
Unless you work in recruitment or porn…
Or maybe you're a porn recruiter, that's a double whammy.
Yes I imagine it might be!
Yea, this regular "surprise" that work computers are... IDK... owned by work and are configured as the owner requires... is so strange to me.
