    Hey, at least we can confirm the FBI still issue BlackBerry.

    Excerpt from a longer story.

    Washington (CNN) -- It sounds like the plot of a bad movie: bugging your boss' office. Sending naked photos around to co-workers. Sexting in the office. Paying for sex in a massage parlor.
    But it all happened in the federal agency whose motto is "fidelity, bravery, integrity" -- the FBI.
    These lurid details are outlined in confidential internal disciplinary reports obtained by CNN that were issued to FBI employees as a way to deter misconduct.
    Read the FBI's internal reports (PDF)
    The FBI hopes these quarterly reports will stem what its assistant director called a "rash of sexting cases" involving employees who are using their government-issued devices to send lurid texts and nude photos.
    "We're hoping (that) getting the message out in the quarterlies is going to teach people, as well as their supervisors ... you can't do this stuff," FBI assistant director Candice Will told CNN this week. "When you are given an FBI BlackBerry, it's for official use. It's not to text the woman in another office who you found attractive or to send a picture of yourself in a state of undress. That is not why we provide you an FBI BlackBerry."

    Oh no, I thought you were talking about BES which is what the article is about and what Sith and I were discussing.
    Balance gives you the separation. In theory.
    I still wouldn't use my own device, even with Balance.
    Work is work. Personal is personal.

    Private sector would fire employees for such activities. Only govenment agency to really crack down and fire employees is Secret Service. Bet the managers kept the videos from Brazil ""for evidence"
