Stop spreading misinformation. People have always had the ability to create work-specific accounts for use on corporate devices. I’m shocked that it’s not common knowledge that corporate devices are NOT yours, and you basically cede all rights to data on and usage of the devices. Never use a work device for non-work purposes unless you are fine with those non-work activities being 100% visible to your employer.

I know misinformation feels good since it supports a narrative, but everyone benefits from accuracy and honesty.

My dude, I am neither the author nor the quoted source of the article I linked. Dial it down a notch hey? Also, your other comments are pretty extensively addressed in the same article.

No, but you have cited an article and source that has been proven to be incorrect on the topic. You went to the effort to find said piece of information but skipped the next search result on google where tons of apple employees say 'nahh thats bullshit' 'yeah you can, but you dont have to, most managers tell you not to and only an idiot would do that'

It is a fact that many people "live on" their work devices as if they are their personal devices. I havent ever heard that be a requirement though, it just happens to be the way people use it

Sure, but then if something bad happens to their personal side such as a corporate remote wipe, well, they reap what they sow.
