Something I've been dying to ask an industry expert. If your users setup a second user profile on android , and exclusively uses the second profile for work-related apps (assume full control), can you see the contents of the first (unrelated) user profile?

You realise that nuclear power and nuclear enrichment for weaponry are two very different things, right?

As someone who doesn't know tor well, why be careful? Just the normal prudence when looking up xxx, or something specific to tor?

How much privacy would i be sacrificing to have my work email on my personal phone? in c/[email protected]

Appreciate the comment, unfortunately my employer has limited access to O365 apps. I have a slightly different use case than OP

A followup question, if you don't mind. I am running stock android 14 on a pixel 6. My main user account is my personal (nothing work related), and a second user account is my work profile, complete with phone-management software. The two accounts are based upon different Google accounts.

If my work were to remote wipe, I have assumed that would only affect the (second) user profile which has those apps, and not the main user account.

Do you know if that is correct?

This is great context, thanks.

A followup question, if you don't mind. I am running stock android 14, which offers multiple users. My main user account is my personal (nothing work related), and a second user account is my work profile, complete with phone-management software. The two accounts are based upon different Google accounts.

Agree with all your points. I just wanted to remind people to hate the architect (in this case politicians and insurers), not just the coder.
