As someone who works in the edge networking side of things you are not being paranoid. Logging all web activity is extremely common. Some industries require it even if the powers that be in the company don’t want it, and it might surprise you on which verticals require it (education providers are a good example).
Even better if you work remotely and their network goes down. Because yours works just fine and you can just browse Lemmy while they fix it.
Damn I wouldn’t even dare using office WiFi for personal stuff. Would be fine but maybe I am just paranoid.
I wouldn’t do it. Not worth the risk.

Those are the only remote work days when I can break out Steam or Netflix during business hours.
