The pervasive use of second screens endangers corporate IT networks
- baud147258 7y ago> many people today use their additional monitor to stream music and watch sporting events It reminds me of my internship in a French investment company, where the network slowed to a crawl during Roland-Garros. When crossing the trading floor to grab a coffee, we could see that many of the traders' screen showed the games. Except in their case, it was one screen out of 4-6.
- paulrpotts 7y agoOh, FFS. It's not the damned screens. Software engineers need screen real estate. This will be used by managers to refuse to provide them with enough pixels to avoid constantly juggling their windows. This really should be titled "IT departments too inept to configure firewalls to block streaming media services, and won't sanction problem employees under existing policies."
