Yep. Only a complete moron would put their personal stuff on a work device. At the very least, if you quit or are fired from the job, or the company simply wants to updgrade devices, you have to give the device back. Similarly, why would anyone use a personal account for work stuff? Of course, this is simply the usual nonsense by the woo-woo conspiracy nutters who think *everyone* is spying on them. (Unfrotauntely, far too many Americans do seem to belong to the conspiracy nutter "religion". :-\
