While this is hardly an unknown fact amongst HN readers, a lot of people get very surprised when told about this.I've seen some of my colleagues going to private mode to browse something not work related, and when I explain that tbis won't help at all, they are almost shocked.

    But company doesn't know who has phone with given MAC address, while computers MACs are probably assigned to employee.

      I'm sure I could trace it back to most people with high level of accuracy, as it's a small company.

I’m wondering if the new Brave browser’s Tor-based private mode makes a difference. Many companies have systems circumventing https via additional certificates—effectively a man in the middle attack.
