  For me it’s Chrome for work, because we’re not allowed to install anything on our machines :(

      If they’re not allowed to install their own software, they probably aren’t allowed to use USB drives

        You’re absolutely right! USB storage devices are blocked and we don’t have the right to execute arbitrary executables anyway. It is a pretty secure environment.

    Apologies, I am the one who makes those decisions. So I give firefox to those who will take it and no matter what I make sure Google isn’t their default search engine.

      I manage a team of about 30 people in IT. Your job is not valued enough, and I know the importance of what you do. Thank you for your work!
