My very large corporation is 100% all in on Figma, but has recently blocked several tools and have signaled (through meetings and memo's) that their AI tools will also be blocked.
As an aside, I work in accessibility and our team started using some AI and automated tools to do some A11Y testing and much of the functionality has been blocked. We were really interested in the companies mobile testing tool but now we won't be able to use that because of the network restrictions.
I've also heard complaints from Devs who said GitHub Copilot has also been blocked and they've been in discussions with the security team to try and get approved, but no luck thus far, they're not budging on allowing it yet.
So you're right, its not just one app or tool, companies are staring to block this stuff wholesale across their orgs.

Man, the hurdles they create are a massive pain in the rear. I work for a small 10-person company. I get to make the rules. And we are never hard ass about the rules. I don't think I have been this productive at any job in the past. I understand that a 100,000 person company has different set of concerns. But I do think that an average developer at smaller company is more productive because they have to deal with a lot less BS.
