I just got a job saying that he need to use anydesk on my pc. Re: "I’m a new freelancer from Indonesia. You haven't told us enough to know why the remote users are doing what they are doing, or whether or not they are violating any laws/rules. But using TeamViewer to connect to a remote computer in and of itself is not a violation of law or ToS. The person you describe MAY BE A HORRIBLE PERSON. This is not a violation of any law or Upwork rule. This server space can include desktop-based platforms we use to remotely work. This server space may be on traditional web hosts, or newer cloud platforms such as AWS, Google Cloud, etc.

Many Upwork freelancers (including myself) pay money to companies located in other states or countries in order have server space which we connect to in order to do our work. What law or Upwork rule does this violate? The freelancer is not misrepresenting his personal location." The freelancer is not using another Upwork account. "A freelancer, based in India, uses TeamViewer to connect into a computer elsewhere in order to do work. It is not even clear if this violates any Upwork ToS: So the correct phrase you should use is: "I have an unfounded suspicion that it is illegal." In order for something to be "illegal", it must violate an actual written law that is codified by a nation, state, or municipality. I know of no such law, and neither do you. Because you can cite no law that these India-based freelancers are breaking.
