    lol yes they can. Your employer can make you use whatever software they want, and can and do monitor everything you do on their network.

    There is no expectation of privacy when you’re using their hardware or network.

      make you

      That’s a very bold and not entirely true statement. But alright, have at it.

        If your employer gives you a laptop for work, they can lock it down to whatever the hell they want. Standard practice is to give regular users no elevated privileges at all, so you couldn’t install anything that isn’t already installed. Most companies don’t even let users edit the internet options so you can’t even change your default search engine.
