You can disagree with the expectation of privacy but it’s been held up in court multiple times that personal actions ok a corporate resource are not protected.
Ideologies and realties are different. If you care about personal data, don’t put it on the company. The company however has a huge liability with your personal data. I’ve mentioned else where I have dealt with issues of personal data becoming an issue for the company via blackmail, or in a couple cases, the company was legally required to report child pornography. So yeah, if you don’t want the company to know, don’t put it on their equipment. If you buy dedicated equipment for work, use it for work and work only. If you want to use your machine for Everything, that’s fine, but understand the risks and the lack of an expectation to privacy.
