Im neither a hacker nor a security researcher. that said i keep up on the things happening with technology. the recent xz hack effected debian based distros. ive been attempting to migrate to qubes in the past few months made some head way but was going to do a fresh install as i set up the tor instance without bridges and i noticed some bad behaviour in fire fox. its almost like it cleaned its self of privacy links it was really weired.

I also want to make my disk encryption password stronger.

My question is. should i start from scratch and do a whole new install with a new media or do I roll with this version. or is this version corrupt. I made this iso about three maybe four months ago.

Hope this is the right place for this question. If not may the mods forgive me.
