“Just be sure to wipe the hard drive, overwriting all nodes, using Bleach Bit
etc and from what I gather, flash the bios with an open source bios...assume
everything is pawned. Everything...” if I do this, will the laptop get rid of
any malwares, if it had any?

So like companies that sell laptops bought in bulk should be a little bit safer
than laptops sold by individuals on sites like Craigslist since those companies
buy the laptops from other businesses which most likely only used those laptops
for business purposes and not like for Tor stuff, right?
So like installing coreboot should eliminate any malware installed at firmware
levels, right?

Thanks a lot for the reply. So if the previous owner’s dom0/laptop was
infected, it wouldn’t have any effect on me if I change the SSD and install
coreboot, am I understanding right? I apologise for my ignorance on this topic,
I’m learning only now.

I was told that buying an used laptop represents an extra risk since the
previous owner could have used the laptop with Qubes and got dom0 infected.
After a little bit of research, I was told that installing coreboot would

So I’m still learning about Qubes but I have a question please. I was told that
if dom0 gets infected, everything in the laptop can be found and read. The ip
is not a problem but I’m not sure about the MAC address? If they found out the
latter by infecting dom0, what are the possibilities to tra
What about the Mac addresses of the laptop itself? Does infecting dom0 reveal
the Mac addresses embedded in the laptop’s hardware?

Hello everyone. I was told that if someone manages to infect the dom0, they
will know about all the MAC addresses so my question is: does someone know
which MAC addresses does infecting dom0 reveal?

I’m looking for a good laptop for Qubes at around 1K and a kind fellow user of

Has anybody else experienced Qubes with the dell 5590? What are your thoughts
and experiences?

I have a question but I found nothing online regarding this. Let’s say I used

everything about it, will he/she be able to know that I had on

Thank you for the reply. So why is it a bad idea to install Qubes in a MacBook
Air? I mean is it because it’s not possible to install Qubes in a MacBook Air
or because it won’t function properly?
