- nis0s 11mo agoUh, no? I don’t think that’s a thing in any JetBrains IDE, unless I am mistaken.
- bloppe 11mo agoDoes your employer provide you with a laptop? In that case you should assume they have access to the hard drive at least.
- nis0s 11mo agoOh, that’s a different scenario. I would never do personal work on someone else’s laptop. But I think what’s being described in this case is that if you use this IDE, even on a personal machine where your license is from another source, then your personal data is somehow exposed to others.
- binsquare 11mo agoWould we agree with this statement?: if you use a tool licensed by your company your work still belongs to the company.
- nis0s 11mo agoMaybe you’re right, in this case it’s like if a plumbing company loans out plumbers tools. You’re not necessarily allowed to use loaned tools for personal work, but in that case it’s usually due to degradation. I am not sure that applies to digital tools. It’s an interesting question.
