I got a new laptop from my new office, but all social media sites are blocked.


Now, is there any way for me to log into these sites surreptitiously?


I just find it easier to combine personal and official work form one laptop, and this is Apple and amazing.


I have another laptop, but that is old and clunky.


lemme know if there is any way I can log in from another account on the system.


Technical-minded people, I hope someone can provide me  ahack.

I don’t know how you can unblock things, but I’m thinking if the laptop is set up with social media sites unblocked your work doesn’t really want you to go online while you are at work or using their equipment.  They might also be worried about security risks.  I say don’t take any chances and just use your phone to play around online.

Many companies will use a warning letter for using VPN, social media sites and p*rnography on work laptop. The IT will get notification for using banned sites and HR might take disciplinary action against you. This is something a newbie gets warned in my office. Its not fun to sign warning letters for such silly mistake.

Don't HR might take a disciplinary action against you. One of my colleagues tried using hotstar on her official laptop and got terminated in a week

I would recommend using your personal laptop or mobile for social media
