A simple Microsoft 365 Roadmap update will now generate a raft of unhappy headlines. The idea is simple. “When users connect to their organization’s Wi-Fi, Teams will automatically set their work location to reflect the building they are working in.”
Forget the locational anonymity of a Teams virtual background. Teams will update your location when connected to your company’s WiFi. On video, you may have your usual background complete with company logo. But your boss will know you’re not in work.
Good.
Anyone who gets in bed with a company that uses these products deserves all the shit coming their way.
Until all companies start doing this.
Good thing we don’t need to rely on software companies for video chat.
