The way this was communicated to me in the past was "don't say/write anything using company resources that you don't want to see on the front of <insert major news publisher>". All communications on employer-operated platforms are subject to discovery.

Senior leaders tend to skirt this by using the telephone or video calls predominantly. However the infiltration of machine learning and AI means transcripts of calls, etc are now possible too.

In addition, the growing use of "disappearing" messages despite litigation holds has come up in more legal cases recently.

A video call on a company account isn't ironclad but, unless you're discussing something actually illegal, it's probably good enough for most purposes. Maybe not as good as personal cell phones or in-person, but a lot better than anything written--especially on company systems.

That seems like it would be a much larger constraint than you're making it out to be.
