The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.

I find it crazy that you can get in trouble for browsing the wrong websites. It's illegal where I live to track people's computers.
Just a distinction: It's most-likely a laptop issued by the company, not a personal computer.
In the US there is no reasonable expectation of privacy on company computers and company networks and to reinforce this usually on day 1 of a job you sign documents explicitly stating they can and will monitor traffic on company systems.
Without monitoring traffic on all company systems there would be no way to know if your company was subjected to a breach. There is mandatory reporting for public companies and part of the reporting includes the capability to monitor for said breaches.
To that end I have to wonder where you are that information security is basically prohibited by law.
My company uses zscalar. It's essentially a company endorsed MitM attack and for that reason alone I don't use the work laptop for anything but work.
that reason alone I don’t use the work laptop for anything but work
I think that was the goal.
When I used to work in an office, I'd always use wireguard to tunnel my traffic on my phone back through my home IP. Got to use their wifi and still maintain my privacy
This is even easier now with tools like tailscale
This does not apply for most european users. Source: I am the one who gets these requests and anyone who isn't a judge gets jack shit. Go pound sand. Anything else would be illegal under privacy and work laws. Even police wont get ANYTHING (judge will reject it) if the crime in question isn't worth at least 2 years of jail time.
Suspected malware domains just get blocked, no further action will ever take place.
When I read stuff like this, I feel there is a whole part of Lemmy that I am totally clueless about.
I have no idea even where the areas that OP is talking about even exist, and with the way the servers seem to go down all the time or I need to reload a browser, it makes it that much more difficult to wander around and get to know the place because you never know if a certain page is empty because its really empty or it just didn't load correctly.
