This is similar to what most tech companies have aligned on. I work 200 miles from my co-workers, my manager is 100 miles away, and while I'm supposed to be 100 miles away our tracking software doesn't care if I badge in 2 miles away at my local office.

If you're a multinational company, you'll be on video calls regardless of what you do, so it's fucking stupid that they enforce these rules.
