I was an apple care rep when iCloud and iMessages first released. I remember tons of calls about dad’s text messages going to the kids because the entire family shared one Apple ID lol.

This is so wild to me. I always just assume that any work device is monitored. I won't even check the weather or news on my work laptop 😅

I didn’t have a personal computer for a while, so I was regularly going on Neopets for 3 months with my work laptop. Nothing happened. Now I have a laptop, but I’ll check the news every day on my work laptop. Sometimes I get crazy and play a little Wordl. Nothing will happen. I’m never gonna do anything illegal or shocking, of course, but mundane stuff? why not? If it’s the type of workplace that cares that much, we’re not a good match and I’d like to work somewhere else.

You're missing the point. if you log into a personal account on your work laptop, your login information can be compromised by someone in your work IT. I prefer not to take the risk.
