    I mean… Is it really spying? Your company can detect which AP or Switch you’re connected to (or if you’re using a VPN from home), so they do have that data anyways.

      There’s a huge difference between a piece of data being recorded in a SIEM somewhere and the data being displayed up front all of the time for micro managers to pounce on.
