    Inevitable.

    I knew it was gonna happen.
    When I first started working here in 2019 web access was blocked to certain sites. Then about a year ago, there went "youtube", blocked!

    Well, they iniated a new update effective at noon today.

    And yep, you guessed it. No more TBH on the work computer!

    Not going to put in my 2 wks til I figure out how to filter out employees that block hunting sites, on "Indeed".

    Looks like there'll be a permanent phone charger kept in my office from now on.

              I never use my work network PC for anything other than work.

                A lot of companies lock down hunting, shooting, gun websites etc.
                But they will still let you go to CNN. Go figure.

                But, I rarely use my work laptop for anything personal except a couple news sites.

                  I'm self-employed and do whatever the hell I want all day!

                  But yes, OP, that sucks. Maybe take the IT guy out for a beer and see if there's a work-around?

                    I may be the only person at AA perusing TBH, so I think I'm good for now.

                    I did find it funny I was able to use the work computer for our TBH group's first poker night. A week later for the 2nd game, I could not. lol.

                      I keep a cheap laptop on my desk for my personal business. My boss once asked me what that was all about. I told him I didn’t want our corporate cyber storm troopers seeing what I was doing. He let it go.

                          Ahh the joys of being a remote employee… though I rarely use my work computer to surf tbh.

                            Will using a VPN circumvent the filters?

                            I have no clue but know two of our tech minded employees are navigating through them for whatever it is they look at online.

                              No, not through their network, still going through the DMZ/firewall where it is probably blocked. Like said above, have to bribe the network IT guy. Be amazed how easy it is ;-) Think I did it for some extra RAM a few years back. Still open, but limit my time on here at work.
