I bought a computer a year ago and the guy had Linux Qubes on it for "security" I didn't do anything with it till I wiped the hard drive and installed Windows 7. Anyone know why he would have such a weird distro on it?
I found its easier not to question the strangeness of people who even know what Linux is.

What's weird is that dumb fuck didn't destroy the drives and just offload the comp without them

If you wanted to know you probably shouldn't have formatted and dug the disk and attempted to find if the faggot set the encryption correctly.

I wasn't in the mood to try to learn some random distro when I needed a working pc
I once got a laptop with Knoppix installed on it's HDD. Text to speech was enabled and it only booted into the CLI. My only guess is that it belonged to a blind person

Could have booted from a live CD.

Overall though, I would guess one of two things. The guy was a conspiracy nut and thought the gove gave a shit about his collection of hentai. Or he was a pedo. Or he was just curious at being a "l33t H4x0r".
There is several reasons he could have done it.

Qubes isn't exactly Tails. It's more of a container-friendly distro used as a hypervisor for virtualization.
