Please correct me if I’m wrong, you don’t have full linux. It’s running a
port of linux because it’s ARM based. You can’t use most apps that’d you
want to on that port (things like skype etc) right?

I stole a Samsung Chromebook from school well really didn’t steal I moved
away. But the point is, it is still owned by the school’s network so I
can’t really get on Facebook or anything. What should I do to make it
rightfully mines? I want to Bypass or Jailbreak it. Reset it to factory
settings so I can be administrator.
