For US government employees USAJobs is probably one of the most accessed websites.

Also in Google searches, if you click the vertical ... next to the URL on results, click the down arrow in the pop-up, and click Cached you can likely access a version of the website your white/blacklist service doesn't block. If there are SFW sites you need access to. Generally all scripts are disabled, though.

If allowed, doesn't DoH/DoT mitigate this issue?

Not necessarily, as the browser is still logging the history.

Well that's what private mode is for, to dump the local data after closing the browser session

Sysadmin here with 8000 users. (Health care)

Yes we can see it

Yes it is logged, but only for legal reason.

No we don't give it to your boss or head of departments, only when a crime is involved and legal charges are pressed. Crime units must be involved

No we do not monitor or spy on you, you're not special.

Yes you can watch porn, we don't care. Just do your job when you're done.
