Basically, I'm trying to play Hearthstone at work, but don't want to download it onto the computers there. I've put Ubuntu on a usb and have no issue getting into it from the usb at work. I know I have to use playonlinux to get Hearthstone on ubuntu and I know how to do that. So two questions:

  1. Is there a way I could simply boot Ubuntu from my USB and have hearthstone already there on its desktop ready to play?

  2. If not, and I have to go through playonlinux, does the computer itself recognize that I'm downloading something? Not sure if that makes sense. Basically, I'll probably get in shit if I download something on a work computer. But if I'm in Ubuntu (off a USB) and I download, is that traceable?

Thanks! PS, I'm a newbie when it comes to any of this, so plain english please!

I’m pretty sure for all intents and purposes the USB is untraceable. If you do not change any BIOS settings to show that you’re booting off a USB stick once in a while you’re safe. Wouldn’t download anything though as the computer is functioning just like normal, it is simply running a OS from a different source namely your USB, and therefore your IP address is still traceable - Now for saving a configuration on a USB I’m pretty sure you can create a persistent file when creating you USB. That should save all changes you make to the USB while using it. enter image description here
