Work laptop has location services locked. Is it over for me? (alien.top)

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?

My laptop is locked to location services = on. I hard wire into my router with WIFI and Bluetooth turned off. Never had an issue and I semi-regularly review my logins, all of which report my "work location."
