Please Stop: "Allow my organization to manage my device"
Please stop trying to encroach on device management / ownership. This is my device and you can't manage it. Please stop.

First of all, this is a big security risk for big Microsoft customers, because their users may accidentally leave their credentials on non-secure computers just by logging into Teams or other applications. Especially relevant these days with lots of people working from home.
Second of all "Allow my organization to manage my device" is not well worded, as it doesn't specify what actually happens (it stores your credentials. It doesn't give IT at work control over my personal computer. I think).

Perhaps Group Policy to turn this on/off? Especially in non-persistent VDI where the device shouldn't be managed!

At least give the option Don't ask again! when you click only this app. Of the 3 devices, I use Teams on only 1 is owned by work. The other two are mine and mine alone! On top of that, work doesn't want this used!

Hello,
Does someone have a workaround for this ? -

Fully agree. As a consultant I connect to multiple organizations to hold Teams meetings. Teams is still not smart enough to let me log on to multiple organizations at once and just switch between them in a tabbed (or some other) interface (another royal pain in the backside), but that's another discussion.
Every single time I connect to certain organizations Teams is abusing me with this message. And the answer is every time the same: a loud and clear NO - well, not so clear to Microsoft.
Can you please stop this annoyance and for once respect my choice.
Thank you.

How do I remove device management from my organization?

At least create the ability to 1. change your answer and 2. see whether it is active. Wasted a bunch of time researching this.

I wholeheartedly agree with this since I need to connect to different organizations via Teams and I cannot and will not allow all of them to manage my device. In fact I don't want any organizations besides my own from managing my device.

Would appreciate this feature, as I am Manager of my Organization and want to decide whether to implement this feature or not.
