So the laptop provided by work, which is used to connect to a virtual machine, does not allow turning off location services, which are used pretty much all the time according to windows. Even if I were to set up a gl.inet system on my own, would this negate all of that? Are nomad dreams done for now, at least on this role?
Honestly you are in a pickle. If you can put the laptop in airplane mode + turn off blue tooth that might work? Still need a VPN Router. I would also recommended a few dry runs. Test in another country for few days come back etc. See if raises any red flags. - If location lock is on than that laptop is honestly pretty secured.
I might not even risk it then. I would maybe start looking for new job at this point. That is tough one.
I see others talking about remote desktop in but I can’t recommend that either. To many things can go wrong and if you out of country its a pain in the ass.
