> I suggested the same to my uni comms team

These are clearly not the right people to talk to. But if they're in charge of the IT team, as they seem to be at nostr:npub1csmk8m4taey43qh4tsr22xpthx0fkpkuclxqcss8m4c4fnq9vlysgg7z5n's institution, that's a barrier to progress in a multitude of ways. In either case, I'd suggest building bridges with the IT folks, and collaborating on ways to treat the comms muppets as damage, and hack around them.

nostr:npub1g95rl3eq5sm30jx0kg5w6eh05rtntl7pjp68zz6wevhrj2ffuedsf9k790 might have some more detailed suggestions.
