Hi. My school just started issuing devices last year, and they have this Lightspeed spyware on them. Last year I was able to remove it by booting into Linux from a flash drive and moving the files to a separate drive and then back at the end of the year. This year I have heard from sources that they have ways of detecting someone booting from Linux so I am hesitant to do that option. My only other idea is to buy an old laptop off eBay that looks like it and install Linux on it. I could probably get one for about 50€. Does anyone have any cheaper ideas?
Oh also talking to IT isn’t an option.
Is running Linux from a USB drive an option! You don’t have to install anything on the machine itself, and you could run the pen drive os on any machine…
I would say just do it and play dumb if they bring anything up. Or look at some really weird shit and let them spy.
I did the “look up weird shit” option last year and ended up having a nice chat with 10 different psychologists about it. I’m not doing that again but I like where your head’s at.

Grow up and get your own fucking computer. Don’t be an asshole and fuck with someone’s else’s machine. Do whatever is required to be done on the school machine then put it away and use your own for whatever supersecret spy shit or whatever you need to hide from"The Man". I don’t fuck with my company issued machine. I do my work then use my own machine to surf porn, torrent, or what the fuck. I don’t mess around with the machine that someone’s else paid for. Because I’m not an asshole. Don’t be an asshole.
I have my own computer. I use it for exclusively personal things and use my school issued computer exclusively schoolwork. They legally require me to give up my privacy and I disagree with this based on principle alone. Enjoy your porn though.
