A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Our work environment was pseudo legal, outside of the bounds of normal government office work. We were able to write our own policy, perform our own investigations, and even hold our own trials. I was involved in several disturbing investigations. A couple resulted in people getting fired.
One of the things I liked was the fact that I was able to deal with people who were simply out of bounds. I could call them and say, "Hi. It's MapleEngineer. I just wanted to remind you that we can see everything you do online and that you have obligations under [policy]. There is nothing in writing and if we don't talk again no one will ever find it about this conversation." That solved 95% of the problems. 4.9 percent were handled by their manager if I saw them in the logs again. Very few results in formal investigations but I was never wrong.
I wonder were there any victimless crimes? for example watching porn at home from corp laptop
if so, do you know how the trials of such cases usually went? or it's all one-on-one conversations/decisions?
I was only looking at things coming in and going out through the corporate firewall. We were in a correctional environment so porn was prohibited. I was mostly interested in things that were illegal or dangerous. I dealt with anything that wasn't criminal. Anything that wad criminal I referred up them responded to requests from the investigating officer when they came. I often got requests from managers to pull full histories and look for things that were outside of my remit like wasting time at work. I refused those requests and any that were overly broad. Once an investigator got to know me they figured out how to make requests that I would agree to fulfill.
it sounds like you can get provided for till the rest of life if you sue your previous employer. Gotta order up few kevlar shirts to court hearings just in case tho
I left there almost 15 years ago and have been working for US companies in international security. I have never looked back.
