@notsle In my previous job, I worked with Intune MDM... Yeah we had several instances of someone on my team accidentally disabling or wiping employee-owned phones. I suspect this is more common than many would like to admit. After that experience, I'll *never* allow an employer to have control […]

I can get to outlook in a browser and that’s enough for me on my personal […]
