    I agree with your sentiment if the tech were self-hosted, but there are huge security risks to pasting sensitive internal content into a third party took

    We’ve had similar issues with Grammerly. That shit is basically a cloud-based keylogger. My god it’s horrible that anybody installs such a thing.

      That depends on what kind of agreement exists between your company, and that of the third party tool. Yes, in the worst case, the answer is “none”.

      But most workflows involve quite a lot of third party tools, only they are all licensed, and with clear details worked out for what data can go where.

      That employees are using such tools without there being a proper deal… Is a temporary problem to which a ban is not the solution.
