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.

    Gah!!! Ffffuuck me I forgot about that. I take business calls on my phone through work WiFi and maybe I use my personal phone on breaks and such… woopsie. So how bad does it look if I used an app or even a game without turning off wifi?

      Overwhelming majority of workplaces won’t give a shit. There’s so many real issues to deal with and what games you have running on your phone is not one of them, that’s a management problem - not an IT one.

      Some incredibly high security environments might think otherwise but they’d never let you use your phone for business, you’d certainly be given one from the company.

      Having a talk about it doesn’t mean they care. They’d just want you to stop doing that on the work network.
