I remember personally hearing about a Big Tech rank-and-file employee who was trying very, very hard to work around Infosec protections on his company-issued laptop that were preventing him from installing some video game with super-invasive kernel-level anticheat.

So, yeah, people do absolutely braindead shit with their company-furnished equipment. It's fucking mind-boggling.

On top of that, the company hasn't never hidden the fact that everything on the machine is tracked.

Everyone on the planet is saying this. Every new hire orientation likely states this.
