Quote:E-mail blocking is just retardedWhile I agree with you, unfortunately, the company has every right to scan/block/monitor your email simply because it is a service that they are providing for you - and most companies make you aware of ths fact, and stress that email use is to only be used for work-matters. My firm just blocks out attachments from emails (like .exe's, .vbs's, etc.) and while they say they don't monitor email content, I'm inclined to think that they do. Would you let someone you didn't really know use your internet connection without concern of how they were using it? Plus, they can use it as an excuse to see just how much you really do every day.
