Company provided phones

If I get a company provided phone are they going to track me all the time, where I go, what I do, etc.? How much can they find out about my activities and what I do on that phone. I am assuming my location will be tracked all the time.

What are your thoughts?

I’d take a hammer to it once the battery is removed. Sometimes the spychips have their own flux capacitors that will keep beaming the signal to the Lizard Men at the center of the Earth.

Wear a tinfoil hat, then they can't track you.

Don't get aluminum foil though, that is a common mistake.

You will need to turn off wifi and cellular-think airplane mode. Go,to settings and disable GPS. Turn off phone and take out battery. Anything less, and the phone will track your location. That said where in the he-l are you going?

I believe you can get the List of approved sites from either your direct supervisor or HR.

Wow! I would love a job where that is my only worry. I’m sure you will be just fine as long as you only use it for business purposes only! Enjoy your day

Well of course it will track everything you do.

My thought is that maybe you should read the agreement you signed when you received the company provided phone. Because it probably has the exact information that you’re asking everybody else to provide to you.
