First time seeing forceful Google Chrome update is done by Cisco. Could it be a sign of installing watching software and be a potential candidate on the LR list?

Would you prefer they left vulnerable software on your system that nation states are actively exploiting? Some of tge d-mbest people apparently work at Cisco.
No there was a security incident last week (Friday). That's why.
Cisco monitors everyone movement via GPS technology built into smart devices which you gave full access to manage, including wiping data clean. Specially time like this, Cisco IT is actively busy tracking your activities and movements, and what could the desperate employees up to during one month pre-LR wait period, which has not been the case ever.
Browsers are managed by your organization- and probably chrome will be closely monitored. I believe that Cisco hack from 2022 started via a single users’ chrome password manager leak
Please take a deep breath, go for a walk, and internalize the fact that you won't know if you are or are not affected until September 16th.
It’s a normal Chrome update. If IT wants to lock your account they would not do this through a chrome update
It’s a chrome update to make sure you stay within security parameters. No one is spying on you, the work you do at Cisco is not critical. Stop the conspiracy theories.
