A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Prepare for productivity to tumble lol switching tabs and keeping working is much more efficient than switching between your phone and your computer screen if you're at a desk job. I guess I can understand why they want to do this but they better get a lot more lax with people being on phones, which I'm not gonna hold my breath on. Just more ways to shit on employees for other companies to emulate, love this capitalist innovation!
I hope organisations invest in qubes os and other container/virtualization tools to make them more practical.
Taking radical steps like cutting off internet would hurt productivity as much as it improve security.
