glances over at HP laptop I requested a replacement for 6 months ago because it overheats if I have a video call on and a spreadsheet open
My HP is genuinely a creepy laptop. In the BIOS is a an "HP remote setting" as well as 3 other remote modes all at the bios level asking to join my wifi, again, at the BIOS level.
I work from my home laptop. I have a small offline private network between my work laptop and home laptop that I send ansible jobs to (since the work laptop is a powerful machine), but that work laptop does not touch the internet.
