There are several ways. One can be to have two VPNs, one for trusted
nodes, and one for untrusted nodes like your laptop user. Another option
is to use the TunnelServer or the StrictSubnets options to restrict what
other nodes can do.

But even if you could prevent the laptop user from introducing foreign
hosts using tinc, he can simply use a separate VPN to have foreign nodes
connect to his laptop, and then use NAT to give them access your VPN. So
in short, if you don't trust someone to behave, you shouldn't allow him
access at all.
