Ther is for sure a 2.5k line powershell script from someone totally trustworthy which fixes this issue though

The French National Police also use Linux machines with its modified Ubuntu distro Gendbuntu.

Plus, Russia uses Astra, based on vanilla Debian.

Not like Russia can legally nor want to be dependant on MS/american software.

Which distro are the Germans switching to?

Can’t find out the flavor on any websites. It might be a custom one and I imagine sharing the info would be more of a security risk.

It won’t be a security risk once it’s in use, IT across Germany will know within days of deployment. It will almost definitely be a modified version of some probably well known Linux.
