I think you might be surprised. In the same way that companies "own the
rights" to anything you dream up while in their employ, the companies
are responsible for anything a worker spews out onto the web using
companies resources.
Universities are not a haven for free speech : in the day and age of
league tables and the need for corporate sponsorship it would be wise
not to put them to the test.
By all means have a strong opinion, but don't lead a witch hunt.
