On many systems like Raspberry Pi the <v5.6 kernel /dev/random or /dev/urandom lacked sufficient entropy to properly deploy wifi hostapd WPA2/WPA3 services.
Instead, people used haveged to workaround the issue. Not a conspiracy by some dude, but rather just more budget hardware limitations.
Don't worry about it, there are lots of real dubious things people do already. =3
Did you mean to comment this somewhere else? It doesn't really seem connected to this comment branch.
No, the recollection of /dev/random having an issue was correct, but attributing it the some malicious dude is wrong.
I don't like piling on people that engage in good faith. Best regards =3
Nobody in this thread has attributed anything to "some malicious dude".
