New But could they?
I'll admit I installed the management software because I just can't be bothered carrying two phones. I'm not worried about privacy because I'm not the kind of person who puts things on the internet I don't want people to know. (Yes, I know the contents of my address book are valuable to spammers; I'm talking about what someone at work would care about.)

The current story is talking about your phone being wiped. But could they monitor if they wanted to, technically and according to the terms I (probably) agreed to?

Besides allowing the remote wipe, it primarily enforces corporate password policies.

Now, if they make you install anything else...

It was April the 41st. Being a quadruple leapyear, I was driving in downtown Atlantis. My Barracuda was in the shop, so I was in a rented Stingray... and it was overheating.
