I used to work for those sorts of companies.

I fired them because I'm a mature professional who can figure out how best to utilize my time, TYVM.

Find a company that people actually enjoy coming to work and collaborating in. I mean, if you're an engineer, you're already doing the #1 job in the country, why poison the well at a company with a mistrustful IT policy?

Sorry but I have no end of disrespect for that kind of bullshit. If you're at a job and you're jerking around, people will eventually figure it out regardless of stupid content filtering. And in this case, this is a lost learning experience for you, as the article is very interesting.

Look for a new job. Engineers are in high demand, you can find a place that doesn't treat you like a child.
