Therr was spying concerns ever since they introduced intel management engine to their chips - which cant be easily disabled - but this arricle is not about that

I’d check https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search because most browsers including mozilla firefox rely on google safe browsing.

The other thing to point out is that if an attacker somehow got root access, they could install a so called “rootkit” and what it does it replacing some of the basic commands like top, ps, … with altered ones in order to hide the malware activities

few years ago I was contacted by digital ocean because they got reports about myserver being involved in ssh attack or something like that. Turns out my old drupal website had unpatched vulnersbilities that allowed attacker to access my system and use it for attacking others.

am not saying that to defend your provider they should have at least give you a warning. I an saying that to check yiur server as it may have been compromised

would be easier if you tell us which distro are you running mkinitfs on

Seems that the file /etc/mkinitfs/features.d/ is only linux alphine thing so creating it for another linux distro does nothing.

I would create a systemd service instead if your distro is using systemd https://www.slingacademy.com/article/ubuntu-how-to-create-a-custom-systemd-service/#Introduction

Edit: Sorry please ignore my comment. Your entire system is encrypted so that won’t work. I’ll see if there is another solution and post it

Edit2: Maybe you need to place the file here instead /usr/share/initramfs- tools/scripts/ ? https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/en/man8/initramfs-tools.8.html

Now that upstream Linux is adopting Rust,

is it? From what I read the old kernel developers are really opposing it

Are you even able to access the bios ? Could it be a problem with your montor ?

This all started when US banned google from doing business with huwawi. They could no longer use google products including good play services - which many apps depend on - and google play store. They had to come with an alternative or go out of business

Why was he under threat of a research mandate?

The Justice considers that the lack of moderation, cooperation with the forces of law and order and the tools offered by Telegram (disposable number, cryptocurrencies, etc.) makes it complicit in drug trafficking, paedo criminal offences and fraud.

This research mandate ran if, and only if, Pavel Durov were in the national territory. “He made a pellet tonight. We don’t know why… Was this theft just one step? In any case, it is ready-made”, slips a source close to the investigation to TF1/LCI. Ever since he knew himself persona non grata in France, Pavel Durov used to travel to the Emirates, to the countries of the former USSR, to South America … He had travelled very little in Europe and avoided the countries where Telegram is under surveillance.

What now?

Investigators from the National Anti-Fraud Office attached to the Customs Directorate (ONAF) notified him and held him in police custody. He should be presented to an investigating judge this Saturday evening before a possible indictment on Sunday for a multitude of offences: terrorism, narcotics, complicity, fraud, money laundering, concealment, child-criminal content…

It also means no AMD server could be resold because there is no way to know if it was previously infected

There is always a catch.

in this case I’ll bet its the price

I have never had thunderbird crash. Not questioning what you say but perhaps its sonsthing else? Did u try deleting thubderbird data and starting fresh ?
