on the other hand i know countless subcontractors/vendors that have dozens of work email addresses from different companies and are not really employees of any of them.

so yea, emails are not a trusworthy source of anything, but filtering singups based on addresses is very common.

even remember a time when my galaxy s4 mini would ask me how it should represent itself when connected via usb; also drivedroid to emulate a cdrom drive with an downloaded .iso in order to boot older computers that don't know how to usb.

maybe i have been spoiled by the real computer in my pocket experience of custom rom's.

> are companies not paying for overtime?

ime for most white collar contracts: no
