      I wasn’t sure about it either. There’s security researchers out there who might genuinely want to get a virus to run in a VM.

      But yeah, the cmalw-lib-2.0 gives it away…

            Not too long ago, when Fracturiser was a concern on Minecraft, and I read up on it, I got a chuckle when I read that stage 2 was a systemd service, and therefore couldn’t have run on my machine even if it had gotten that far (of course, I still checked for signs of infection)

          Yes, that is odd, but not impossible either. I’ve seen influencers do dumb shit like that for the attention.
