Fair. I am curious how many folks are able to get root access on their work machines across the software workforce. If you do, what sort of surveillance tech does your IT expect for you to have on there? Are you given special exemption compared to Mac or Windows company machines?

Perhaps I've somehow avoided that for a long time and don't appreciate how lucky I am. I've maintained my own Linux based workstations for the past ~8 years. IT hates it, but we seem to have been grandfathered in from back when productivity trumped compliance.
