Ask HN: Is Facebook blocked in your office internet?
- anoncoward111 8y agoNo, but Google Plus is, which is where Google Hangouts stores videos. Immensely frustrating during my lunch break
- spicyj 8y agoNo. I work at Facebook, and we don’t block any sites except ones with malware.
- Rjevski 8y agoFacebook's behaviour regarding privacy is similar to spyware. ;)
- Cheyana 8y agoYes. Both Facebook and Twitter are blocked.
- jackgolding 8y agoNope, over the last 5 years i've found employers more leniant
- xMAF 8y agoNo it is not but I remember a hospital in Central London which Facebook was blocked in. I'm not sure if it was a policy or they had an issue with their network!
- meiraleal 8y agoToday I'd prefer work in a place where most social media sites were blocked (except Hacker News?).
- phakding 8y agoI worked for an exchange and it was not blocked there. I worked for a car automation company and it wasn't blocked there either. My following two jobs were at multinational banks. In the first one, it was blocked. In the second, I took a "social media responsibility" training and I was added to the exclusion list and I could access Facebook, Reddit, Twitter etc. Now I work for a small finance company and the network is wide open.
