Your time during work hours belongs to the company. If you spend it on private stuff, you're breaking your contract.

Eh, not really, at least in the US. You are paid to do your job. The company doesn't own you during work hours. You can refuse to do work that was not in your job description, or ask for additional compensation. The company may fire you for this, but you would have a very compelling wrongful termination lawsuit.
