What is Workplace?
Workplace?
What is workplace?

It seems to be owned and operated by Facebook, which I see as a spy organization.

Today I went to the website where I do work and in order to access it I have to download Workplace? WTF?

So I emailed somebody at my broker-dealer and they said "In its simplest form, it’s an enhancement to improve cyber security."
Hmm....

I may have to download this... but I don't have to like it and I'd like to know more first.


"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

It's Facebook's foray into enterprise workplace collaboration and communication. It's been around for a few years - I've never used it but seen some reviews of it. Generally decent reviews, but I haven't dug into privacy or security of it since we haven't considered using it.

It’s just another way for Facebook to imbed itself into society.
