    Thanks for the response. Its weird to me because it’s technically not yours and at any time the company could do a something that wipes it, asks for it back or does any number of things and you’d have to go through a lot to back up all your stuff. Or be out of luck if one day they decide to implement a policy that removes access to some app you like to use.

    Not related to you in any way but I had this one lady who had a company phone and she went and got all these accessories and stuff and when we switched phones she was livid about all these things she bought. I felt bad for her but like…it’s not your phone lol.

      That’s all true (unlikely it gets wiped, but definitely technically possible), but i accept it as part of the ‘deal’. My personal data is automatically backed up, if the phone got remote wiped at any point it wouldn’t matter. I know i will need to give it back eventually, but i will have skipped a generation of device (and data plan) in the meantime.

      The story with the lady is funny, not sure how she thought it would work.
