Some security conscious organizations will ban all external software and then approve exceptions on a case by case basis as they pop up.

In such a place, someone has already long ago submitted a ticket to have Google Chrome blessed and the employee installing Chrome is following regs.

Yes, in my case the CEO recommended we use Otter to keep all of the meetings on our dozens of projects straight.

It's not that we didn't want to use it sometimes, it's that I had no desire to use it for these times and it went completely rogue. That could happen with any software, even an OS itself.
