I understand that it may be problematic sometimes but this was very smooth. I didn’t even say anything.

A: what’s your number for the whatsapp group Me: I don’t have whatsapp because of facebook. B: ok, we have to use signal then A: ok

And that was it. Life can be very easy sometimes

      I would never join a group chat like that. If they need to get ahold if me after hours, they can call me.

      BTW Teams doesn’t live on Intranet. There’s no reason they wouldn’t be able to open up Teams to BYOD beyond incompetence.

          Denying putting work stuff on your phone is absolutely valid. The company should provide a company device in that case. And if you do agree to put company data on your phone, they should give a monthly stipend towards your phone bill. That’s how every org I’ve worked at has approached it.

        That requires a business login on your personal device, which is typically against company policy.

        Although, so should be sharing work info outside of corporate channels, so what do I know.

        Really depends a lot on the groupchat. I was apprehensive but it’s quiet there and overall the things that get sent there are either in office hours (e.g. “internet might be out intermittently we are working on a fix”) to links to pay for something someone paid for outside of work like food or drinks.

        I don’t mind it that way, maybe once a week a couple messages

      In these companies, does anyone check the licenses in details to make sure using them is ok for the company?

      Meta will get at least the metadata: meaning they will record who was in which call connecting from where.

      For example, if one member is visiting a client, Meta may be able to infer the relation between the 2 companies.

      If any of the people in the room click “report”, then the discussion is sent for review without the encryption protection

      I’m pretty sure their user agreement translates to “you agree to let us do whatever the f*ck we want with the data you’re purposely disclosing to us”.

      And last but not least: if Meta decides to wipe the archives, any info get lost?

      There a reasons large companies ban unauthorized apps to talk about work.
