I’m non-techy. I work for a public school district and visit with kids in about a dozen schools. I like having my work email on my phone so teachers can get in touch if they need me. For years we’ve just used the outlook app with no real issues that I’ve noticed. We’re seeing more and more micromanagement and it sucks. We recently got notice that we have to install Cisco Duo on our phones if we want to have our email on it. Should i do that? Or just say no and be ok with being out of contact?

    Ask for a physical device like a yubikey instead of the duo app.

    Use the web browser to access email.

      I have a 6 year old work ipad and we buy our own toner cartridges for our office printer. They’re not buying anything. They put millions into door-swiping, staff-tracking security but we have playgrounds that don’t have fences. Public education is super fucked up.

        I think they cost $20. Either this, nothing, or give in and give them access.
