RLC stands for RedlightCenter, and yes, the firewalls should have blocked access.
I went and checked it out last night (apparently a lot of my coworkers did) and RLC is an online environment dedicated to meeting people to have 'virtual relations' with. Apparently,BBB had found some way around the security system. The word this morning though is that he won't be getting fired. He will be attending some classes and he will be getting a written warning put in his file though.
My questions to the Org were along the lines of:
-Is using the internet on company time theft? (And therefore, aren't those of us with jobs hypocrites?)
-Does the sexual nature of the site BBB was going to make it worse?
-Because he's essentially cheating on her while at work, should his wife be told.
All I have to say is at work, at home or on the moon, if Mrs Corleone caught me hanging around places like that, we'd be adding a whole new dimension to Lemur's stream of snip threads:
And I find it interesting (really, I do, that's not said as a veiled criticism) that Kurki's first reaction was the IT guy being guilty of violating the trust of his position for telling us about it. You have a point there...
