Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

So what if they know you have it?
The two things I can think of are the company may try to tag you for inappropriately handling what they consider confidential information -- and if something goes to court and the email ends up in the discovery process, opposing council may be allowed access to your entire personal email account.
It's probably better to copy everything as an attachment to a dedicated portable drive so it's less likely to be called out by the company, and if it ends up it court you only need to release the information on that drive.
This would get you fired from some jobs.
Most companies have software to identify what you’ve copied to an external drive as well.
Copying to an external drive would be way worse than using your own email. With the email you can prove that that was the only data you moved to outside the company. With an external drive they'd argue that it might be a habit, question what else you moved and sue the fuck out of you for breach of contract + violations of NDAs.
