To whom it may concerned,
A lot of people around the world are using wireshark for solving their
network problem. Do you know that some employers ( government agency)
has been using wireshark to capture their employees' personal
information and using that information to fire them. I am one of the
victimes.
I think that in reality, companies who are *really* interested in
knowing what everyone is doing use products like those from Niksun. As
I understand it (3rd+ hand) some of those are designed to capture
*everything* going on in an enterprise network. And you can set
triggers like "if someone sends an email with an attachment named
resume.doc, email HR."
If you care about what people might see, be sure it's encrypted[1].
(And/or, as David suggested, don't do anything private using your
employer's computer resources.)
