My work computer is fully locked down.  Everything has to be installed by IT.  

You should try our Binance. It’s one of the best cryptocurrency management platforms 

As an IT administrator, I lean more towards the education side than I do just locking everything down.  I understand the security concerns, but I don't really do too much to keep people from doing most of the stuff they want.  Heck, I'd be the first one to have to clean house if we didn't allow personal stuff on our computers.  Hive Keychain would likely be a banned add-on :)  I prefer to find a happy medium that still ensures the security of your network.  

I’ve gotten in the habit for a few years now to keep my personal stuff and work stuff entirely separate. It’s not easy to be on hive but I manage, I have my phone near me anyway and I can pop on and see what’s going on so it’s not too bad. 

Tough but certainly understandable!

That kind of thing is annoying. Understandable, but annoying. I work freelance most of the time so I usually don't have to deal with company security policies, but they do hit me sometimes. The car companies are the most paranoid. (And Toyota is the worst). When I visit one of those companies, I have to turn in my phone, my Apple Watch, and if I have it, my laptop and leave them all with the security office; I have to have my fingerprints taken, and sign a sworn statement that I won't steal any corporate secrets. 

Funny enough, Japanese companies haven't seemed to get the memo that email is insecure. Common corporate practice when a password is sent is one email will say something like "stand by for the password" and the next email will contain the password only with no other text. I've argued to many people here that that is not really the most secure method to send a password, but I just get blank stares back. Oh well. 

Sorry, I kind of rambled off. At any rate, yeah, annoying but understandable.  

Sorry about this annoying rule, but totally respect your use of Brave Browser. I love it... been earning BAT for quite some time!

I prefer to just use my own ISP and computer when I work remotely, but this isn't possible for everyone, especially the security conscious like you said.

It is annoying but may in fact be a boon as there's one less space for things to possibly go wrong or fall into the wrong hands. 

I was issued with a work laptop and it's networked to the company system (server) as well as through the rental company that they got it from. That to me is an absolute no-no as there is simply no way that I'm taking the chance of my crypto activities or keys getting into someone else's hands. 

It's going to take you some time to get used to, but I'm sure that you'll get there, it's not impossible, just annoying AF. 

>People make errors of judgement. Many are not good at judging to begin with.

It took me a long time to understand that in blacksmith's house, to err is human, but who is bad at judging is because he always does it from his shortcomings, failures, and meanness Mr. Taraz... And those who judge in this way, it causes delay...it's that simple!!!

In fact, where I currently work, they removed everything, they only edited the applications for what concerns the university with research and extension, and the rest was eliminated. According to this, to avoid distractions in those who make use of the resource technologic. The safety first they say and protection of assets...by the way, what has been left by those who govern us in this my country.

Most corporate companies don't allow personal use on their equipment here at all, caught and fired, simple rule for a long time.

All private work done on home computer, safety always something everyone tries extremely hard to keep up with.

Sorting out your browser use the one you prefer at home, problem is not having an easy link from workspace makes it impossible to do trades if trading.

It sounds like you've gotten comfortable with using the old device and are just a little "reluctant" to port things over to your own. It's just a matter of inconvenience and time. In a few moments, you will get used to it and be in your new comfort zone again.

You're right, Sir; the only reason to move in cyberspace is security. True, but only in terms of security. I agree with you—the problem is not with the device but with the user's own fingers.

Layered security is much safer for someone who is not very knowledgeable about network technology and who is in a hurry or has a careless attitude.

brave lost appeal long time ago when its own CEO acknowledged they were not that "private" browser and could use users details

just use brave and put icon of chrome in desktop isntead :D:D 
But yea legal companies need legal soft, and brave is unknown for them. Welcome to ads in youtube lol

I've never used Brave but it's always intrigued me. Maybe I'll tinker with it a bit!

Certainly corporate security is important, in the end it happened to me too in the past; I don't think Chrome or Firefox are as secure as people think, but if they are decisions that are up to the company, they have to accept them.

I started using Brave a few months ago, and the experience has been amazing. I used to think only Chrome was a worthy enough browser, even though I've used the others as well, but non really felt as good as Chrome. 

I switched to Brave after a friend from here, Hive, suggested I give it a try. Few months in, and now I'm even using it on my phone. The add-ons, extensions, and ad-blockers, all combined really provide quite a flawless experience.

It would be sad if you have to uninstall netflix... Funny enough I didn't even know there is a netflix app..

My Betty works at a university.. She says if she sends a mail to someone on campus it takes around ten minutes to arrive because of security scans and all that lovely stuff... Can you imagine...

Anyways... Is brave really worth using? I heard somewherr that you actually get paid but is it worth it to download
