Workplace: they started to monitor internet browsing - solution

Hi, my employer or rather those beautiful administrators decided to monitor internet browsing, to reduce the network traffic. They were monitoring it even before, but not officially and were doing it only to add pages to blacklist. I'm so happy, now the 2Mb connection will be like Pegasus, flying when needed. Of course not.

But what to do when you are bored or asking for tasks is not the way to getting promoted :)
Fortunately we are intensively using virtual machines for different purposes, VMware. Set the network to bridged, that way you access your network directly and they will have no way to get to you, they will see only the ip and the name of the virtual machine (change it) :) Happy browsing anonymously and till admins will find a way (if exists, probably yes) to associate virtual machines to real ones :)

You know this is not ethical ;)
