In case anyone else was wondering why this would even exist, it's for education in rehabilitation programs: https://www.cdcr.ca.gov/insidecdcr/2022/08/18/secure-laptops...

"The laptops contain standard Microsoft Office applications, a link to the Division of Rehabilitative Programs (DRP) Learning Network, and pre-loaded approved bookmarks. This gives students access to Internet sites approved by academic instructors as appropriate for research."

If this were issued to politicians and I saw it on a train, I'd think "wow, state secrets" and it'd immediately scream "high value" to me.
