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.

    Even if you don’t, there’s plenty of different ways to identify a user on company wifi.

    For example, have your cellphone named “Stephano’s iPhone”? Narrows it down to the Stephanos working in range of that access point.

      Not if my name’s not Stephano and I’m secretly trying to get Stephano fired because he insists on microwaving fish and popcorn every single day and stinks up the office.

      EVERY SINGLE DAY YOU EAT FISH AND POPCORN STEPHANO? EVERY DAY?
