I remember some years ago there was a "malware" going around that would flash OpenWRT onto people's routers, and set them to have more secure default settings.

There should be another thing like that, but one that upgrades Windows into a Linux distro.

That is absolutely hilarious. Good guy malware swooping in and fixing people's shit? Any chance you have a link?

Gemini claims it doesn't exist when I prompted it for finding more info, so for the sake of testing out Gemini's capability of searching I'm doubly interested if this exists.
