Yeah, but ...
For every 1 commentard who is allowed/mandated to read ElReg at work, I'll bet there are another 500 who are skiving off. I'd further wager that of those 500, probably 30+ would be allowed if they asked permission, with a business case at hand for doing so.
And to bring it back on topic, I'll bet over 90% of the commentards who are allowed to read ElReg at work are also allowed to drop ElReg a "corrections" email from their official work email account.
