what if I, for example, had a job in Google and I liked Linux so much I install Ubuntu on my Chromebook, would that be illegal/send me to prison?? Or, if I had the job, would I be kicked?? I like Chromebooks because they are so smol and nice. But I don’t know if it’s legal to install a Linux distro on it. Thank you!!

    I don’t think it would be illegal unless it’s a Chromebook they lended to you directly to work at the company. If you went to a store and bought it your self it’s perfectly legal to throw ubuntu on that Chromebook.

    Here’s where things start to get harder though…

    Whether they will fire you… eh idk if I would take that risk. But if anything just ask the people working there for their opinion on it.
