IANAL but this is might be illegal outside the US (for sure in Italy, probably in most of Europe) and can't be used as a reason for firing employees

- GekkePrutser 5y agoThe company I work for does this in all countries including all European ones. Even in Germany, Italy, France... Which have strong privacy laws. So I'm pretty sure it's allowed as we're too big to not have this checked by legal.
- gattilorenz 5y agoThe fact that it's done doesn't mean it's allowed (and this is very true in Italy, unfortunately). Monitoring the connection of an employee (which is different from blocking certain domains) is possible under certain conditions, but always at the individual level and when there is a reasonable suspicion that the employee might be misbehaving: https://www.laleggepertutti.it/507663_controllo-navigazione-internet-dipendenti https://www.laleggepertutti.it/507663_controllo-navigazione-...
- ThePadawan 5y ago> So I'm pretty sure it's allowed as we're too big to not have this checked by legal. You mean your big enough that legal answered "In the unlikely event that an employee knows their rights, we can afford to get sued"? I second that this is immensely illegal in Germany.
