The polite way of saying it, “I’m particularly vexed at the University’s cumbersome, intrusive, onerous, and user-hostile network access policies and devices.” If I seem to be offline for the next week (while painters spruce up my office), please understand that I probably am offline.
Not to play “one-up” here, but you should try working for a government and dealing with THEIR policies for networks and computer devices. 🙂
