The tracking software issue is so concerning. I expect to be tracked on company equipment, but I’ve seen chatter about ways companies can get into your personal computer too, since you’re using your home network to log in. I don’t know enough about infosec or hardware to understand how to prevent that.

You can set up a guest network on your router (or through your ISP provider depending) and log your work laptop into that. I actually have two: one with internet only for work and one with some additional but still restricted for guests. I also keep the camera covered when not in use. They could remote in and listen through the microphone but not much you can do about that, afaik.
