I do not know if the setting is an Entra setting, I don't have access. I'm just friendly with IT. This is what I believe they were talking about given their description. But not tracking, no. It's basically a here/not here situation. You're either tethered to local networking or not.

It's not just a self reporting feature it seems. Our IT accidentally turned it on (as I understand) for a day by adding building info to one of the supervisors account. It then showed if you were in the same location (building) than your supervisor.

It can be turned on by the IT dept in a large office. It has a different icon for in office network connection vs not. Not every IT dept uses it. Some treat other employees like adults, for instance.

I can't figure out the objection to this either. I see it as a huge step forward for tinkering and tinkerers.

The sugar issue took decades to get us here and will take decades to get us out. It's not an overnight cause and effect. Meanwhile, my doctor thinks ozempic should be in the drinking water (tongue in cheek of course) because of the good it would do to society with immediate results.

you’re lazy and should just exercise more / control your diet.

You are absolutely right. I couldn't get the article to load and found another one. I'm totally wrong.

And that's where things usually break down. Where nothing of reasonable consequence will happen to an officer/murderer. The fact that this part is news. When a judge rules against a police officer's conduct when blatantly in the wrong (and that happens all the goddamn time)... Well that just speaks volumes.

She was probably a bit overzealous I'm thinking, yeah. But that is a thankless job with low pay and little success. I give social workers a ton of latitude. I'm glad you stayed calm in the face of things.

Oh yeah, I totally get the lifestyle. Done enough overloading to really appreciate the lifestyle. But I'm trying to explain things from their point of view. Even if now, you are in control and everything is going according to your plans, they see trouble in months if not years when those plans abruptly change. They know how most people got from point A to point B and are now sleeping in shelters or dark corners of "civilization".

Living in an SUV is often the first step to really needing their help. Housing insecurity is a quick road to pretty rough living. If you are in their system, in their eyes, they can actually act quickly and help you when the likely next step happens. Not being in the system is pretty slow to get help in most places.
