Use it to determine whether or not anything like that is installed. A lot of people seem to think this is about circumventing spyware but it's actually just about determining whether or not it's even present (well, can never be 100% certain it isn't of course but could be 100% certain it is if something was discovered).
There's no reason to expect any sort of privacy on a company owned device.
Not that anyone has time to actually use the tech to snoop on your laptop, unless you're actively being investigated for something. But some places do have activity monitors to track how much mouse/keyboard activity you engage in in a given week. Which seems silly to me as long as folks are completing their assigned projects, let them work. If they're not completing their projects... investigate and correct or replace as needed. That's when you'd engage the monitoring software and actually start digging.
(At least that's when I would start that process.)

if someone were to give you an actual technical answer, what would you even do with it?

No, a lot of people are telling you that it's not your laptop, so don't treat it like it is.

If at work. nothing. If at home just filter dns and traffic

Ahh yes, the worst type of end-user. Already trying to circumvent company policy before receiving equipment.

And sodomizing thousands in several technical groups with his end-user rants...

Why the fuck would you think spamming your end-user sob story across half a dozen admin Linux subs is a public service?
We’ve all got better things to do than read your copy-paste therapy session, mate. Respecting other people’s time should be basic common sense, innit?

Why would you think I'm providing a public service? Such a rude little child.
