My Gov't contractos two cents:
In our office there are a number of people who use computers to access porn, gamble online, get mp3 etc. Part of the problem is that we are a 24-7 agency, and so there is a lack of supervision after hours....
Now I am not the IT/Networking Guy, but I am his un-offical back up, and he keeps me updated as to what goes on with the City IT group. Currently there is some form of monitering of employee internet use, which I am both for and against...
Employees are not being told they are being watched...which I think would encourgae them to not look at porn and what not. My problem with this watching is that it could be used to embarrass the agency....which would be bad.
So one the whole I like the idea...but I am worried that it might be used for nefarious purposes...
Just thought I would toss my hat into this ring....
(PS Tech Questions.....I bring my own PowerBook G4 laptop and plug it into the network, but I don't have any DC installed software on my HD...so what about my internet access can they see? I am assuming everything I do, but I would be interested in some specifics)
