I am going to say this as objectively as possible. It bothers you, so much so that you posted this, so you have probably thought about leaving. If you are like me you cant not code. People say relax but making shit is my relaxing. So if you are like this, you can either call thier bluff and Dev your own stuff, get another laptop if you have to even a Chromebook will do and just do what you want. Work is work, it is not your life. Or quit and find 99% of companies do let you do this. BUT it's not easy to start a new job, I'm 3 weeks old in my new job I can tell you with conviction.
