TLDR: they’re both bad, but it might be interesting to know what each one does

Does it matter in a work setting? Not like you get to choose what your company uses, and furthermore, it’s work stuff, not going to have any personal stuff on there anyway.

The relevant bit is probably just reiterating that your employer can see what you do on work related things, so continue to behave like you are at work

If you CAN influence the decision of what to use, then I guess it might be helpful to know the specifics

I agree with this. I work IT at my job and the amount of things corporate IT can see employees do on our computers and internet is quite crazy.

Right, I should’ve said that “personal stuff should not be on there”. I forgot how some people somehow don’t get the distinction between work and personal assets.

Exactly, assume your employer can see everything you do on the company network, software, and devices. If your employer regularly checks on employees this way (that is excepting extraordinary circumstances) and uses it against employees this is an indication that they are a bad employer and you should find one that trusts their employees unless proven otherwise.
