[BC] IT troubles

[R A Meuser]

It is really simple, the company owns the equipment and put it in your 
hands to accomplish a work function. They make the rules. Where I work 
all our mail and packages is opened as well as a security measure.

Anyone who is competent with a computer should know how to bypass 
security and firewalls for personal use purposes. If you can't or choose 
not to, then it is your problem. Any decent company very clearly lays 
out the rule they expect you to follow. You are always free to go elsewhere.
