Might I suggest posting from home on your free time, using a 
standardized setup that doesn't annoy others?

I fail to see why a public forum on a public openly standardized network 
needs to tolerate the private policies of individual members that 
negatively impact others on the forum.

You want to participate? Play by the rules.

In short, I do not think claiming "My company makes me do it" is a valid 
defense.
