I wanted to see what kind of promotions they were sending to their customers. Is there anything illegal about doing that? I want to tell my boss, but I don’t want him to get mad at me over it.
if it is for research purposes you should tell your boss that you have been working on a project… if it is for personal use, don’t say anything! they could consider you disloyal and fire you. always CYA!
