    Judging from recent forum posts, Citrix still installs a hidden server running with privileged access as part of their client software. It’s almost impossible for normal users to remove it.

    Wasn’t this the same behavior that got Zoom blocked briefly on macOS a few years ago? https://www.macobserver.com/news/apple-update-remove-zoom/

      I wish we could get rid of Citrix yesterday, but:

      1. We’ve got our hands full till next year with a physical relocation of the business, migration to M365, replacement of all servers and storage, and getting the fuck away from VMWare
      2. I was technically hired as a Citrix Admin (despite never having heard of the software before), so replacing it might put my job in jeopardy.
