Mine does the same (well, even less trusty addblocks are blocked).

But I found that copy/pasting the profiles folder of Firefox does the trick. In this folder there is an extension folder and xpi files that I can backup on the corporate cloud + usb drive to restore all my extensions.

Cause yeah, extensions are blocked but pasting into %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ is not :)

[–] Godort@lemm.ee 80 points 1 week ago (1 children)

As a corporate IT drone, usually the extension blocks come from on high and we have no say in what they are. Also, the users that are smart enough to figure out ways around the blocks are not who we are worried about protecting from themselves.

honestly unless the higher ups complain, im looking the other way. i dont actually care all that hard.

[–] sma3in@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

smart! will this trick work on chrome? in my case, I just keep firefox (librewolf) for personal browsing, I do work on corporate browser (chrome), but it's still annoying to see ads while working

[–] Skunk@jlai.lu 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't know about Chrome but that would be worth a search. Our corporate browser was still IE for a while. Now it evolved to Edge.

They are deep in the MS ecosystem...

[–] sma3in@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

I'll give that a try! Thanks man

[–] SatanClaus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago

Oh interesting. I will be playing around with this lol.

[–] Lojcs@lemm.ee 21 points 1 week ago

Corporate ads? So like, all ads?

[–] aviationeast@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago (2 children)

On their computer or yours?

[–] shoulderoforion@fedia.io 22 points 1 week ago (1 children)

If it's connecting to the corporate LAN, it's our computer, comrade

our computers! they force us to use chrome and corporate email

[–] pivot_root@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago (2 children)

My policy has always been if you want me to use your crap, you provide the hardware. And if they still insist, they get to live with their garbage running inside a VM.

There's exactly 0% chance I'm letting corporate spyware touch my data or have full access to my hardware. Between being able to lock down the operating system and remotely wipe the device, that shit cannot be trusted.

[–] sma3in@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Solid thinking! I have the same philosophy but I'm in a place where I need bread. Even if the company didn't provide the hardware, I still took the job. But I do care about privacy so much, I took all the steps necessary to make sure I'm not letting them inside my computer. Luckily they don't have us use any of their softwares, and the only things I have to use is a corporate email inside chrome. And I'm running all of this on a spare old laptop, not my main personal computer.

You could say that you don't own a compatible device. What are they going to do? At that point you likely will get issued a work laptop.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Doing work on a personal device is problematic at best. Using your personal device can be optional but there needs to be a corporate provided device.

[–] untorquer@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

This is why i like working for a small company(<10 Employees). They let me use their money to build a PC for both personal and business use. Linux on one hard drive for personal use, windows on the other for business.

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

What the fuck? Is that in your employment agreement? If not stop immediately
