And the privacy implications. Which is why it's illegal in parts of Europe.

This has actually happened with viruses, cryptolockers, etc before. Get access to Windows group policy, add the virus to it, see it being spread around.

- tpxl 6y agoNot 100% sure, but I think one of Netherlands/Sweden/Finland is on that list. The reason I know this is I work in a multinational firm and there were issues with a monitoring tool. Also, parts of Europe have expectations of privacy even in a work environment, eg. an employer cannot read your work emails, even though they reside on their servers and are part of their "work".
