Of course they can, they literally own the machine. You don't own it, so don't treat it like it's your own private job hunting platform or porn viewer.

Yea, this regular "surprise" that work computers are... IDK... owned by work and are configured as the owner requires... is so strange to me.

Unless you work in recruitment or porn…

Or maybe you're a porn recruiter, that's a double whammy.
