Sure, but it doesn't mean you can't do it. There are plenty of things I can't do - out of the box - with Ubuntu. Doesn't mean you can't do it. Heck. If I install Ubuntu minimal I can't do anything. Ubuntu is one big 3rd party tool collection. > Which tools specifically? bettertouchtool On my xiaomi or galaxy, can't remember, as they are useless since the software isn't updated anymore. It prompts me on how I want to connect when I plug in a USB cable. > I know you're going to be tempted to reply with "you're using it wrong" - but I'm not. This is how I like to use my computer. And it is clear that the MacBook isn't my computer - it is Apple's. (OK, OK! It belongs to my employer!) This comment makes no sense. It's your computer. You can install all these tools if you want.

> It's your computer. You can install all these tools if you want. I'm not sure what you're arguing here - it's literally not their computer, but their employer's. The employer can set policies on what you can or cannot install, whether technically enforced or not. By installing random third-party software, they may be breaching these policies. And yes, one could possibly get approval from the employer to install them (or maybe not - can you trust that this tool will not steal all your data?), but that is a lot of hassle for fixing such trivial things.

  "it is Apple's" Sure they can set policies. But their policy is to use Apple. So no list of things will help here, as the policy is to not use Ubuntu. Which means he can do exactly nothing with Ubuntu or Windows for that matter. They could also mandate to not use an external mouse and keyboard. They can be bugged or wireless traffic can be captured
