Microsoft Teams to Report User Location from December

A December update to Microsoft Teams that will be disabled by default will reportedly track user location and report it [news.com.au] if the feature is enabled. This will allow bosses to tell if an employee is in the office or working from home and set their status accordingly. It will also be able to tell if the user is not at their normal home logon location and provide evidence to employers showing the user's location. Workers who have been taking mini holidays while claiming to be working from home may be affected by this new feature.
