Do you see a similar message for other news and social media sites? My gut tells me that it’s just one of many blocklists added to your company’s firewall but they don’t have a specific message for “blocked because not work related”.
I’m getting these messages occasionally, but usually they make sense, such as when I go to online gaming sites or torrenting portals. Didn’t try porn - don’t want a call from HR. In general, our IT policies are fairly sensible; this is one of the very few outliers.
Funny… My company (over 100k employees worldwide) is blocking CNN as a security risk…

Probably just a blanket block of all msm
All other MSM, even some more questionable like The Sun or Fox News, works fine. CNN is the only one blocked.
