Again, check local laws, but in general you can be fired for cause (meaning no unemployment insurance eligibility) for violating company policy. So "legally" might be wrong but "had to clock out (if you want to keep working here)" might be accurate.
In "at will" states in the US, you can be fired without cause and without notice. So do your homework before you decide not to follow company policy.
This is false. You cannot be fired without reason, you can be fired for any legal reason which will vary from state to state, which may be more strict (for employers) than federal law.
You can be fired without cause. That is in the literal definition of "At will"
