A lot of points have been mentioned both pro and con. There are two questions
that come to my mind:

1. Has your group done something in the past that warranted locking down your
machines?

2. Is your ability to install this device work related? If so, have your
manager bring up the issue to others.

System Admins work for a department. Their department works, like your
department, for the company. Somewhere from above, these policies were put in
place. It is not always the messenger that needs shooting.
