I&#x27;m with you 100% of the way when the employer hands me a device for work use.<p>I&#x27;m a lot more confused about &#x27;Bring Your Own Device&#x27; (BYOD) companies. BYOD has proliferated because employees are generally happier to pick their own devices and not have to carry two devices. Employers are happy because it&#x27;s cheaper, even if there is some stipend involved. It makes IT a bit more complicated but thats about it.<p>But can they look at my messages then? What if they pay my service bill but I own the device?
