I received a Dell Inspiron laptop from a stranger who gave it to me instead of throwing it away. I successfully installed Lubuntu 20.04 using the Erase Disc method with the installer.
I'm wondering if there are any possible security issues related to using this laptop now. (For example, could someone set up a HDD so that it had an un-erasable partition that included a program with keylogger or something. I have no idea if that's possible. Just imagining....) If so, is there anything I can do to mitigate/remove those possible security issues?
Thank you.
