    That’s why I log in as root and edit all files to have open permissions. Next I disable all security settings and kernel security mitigations.

    After that my system is finally mine.

        I’m picturing all the services complaining their keys are insecure, their configs are insecure

          Here is the breakdown:

          • chmod is the command to change the mode of the files (-rwxrwxrwx)
          • -R is the recurse flag,
          • a means “all”, you can also have u, g or o (respectively user, group and others) instead.
          • + is add (you can remove with -),
          • rw is the permissions (rw of rwx)

          I prefer changing permissions this way instead of using absolute values (0777 for instance) as it’s easier to reverse if you made a mistake.
