there’s a video by jonas čeika that’s worth checking out, on how the simpsons became a copy without an original

iirc the intel management engine can be disabled through some weird fuckery, not sure if the same can be done for amd’s equivalent. if you custom flash a bios and run an open source os compiled by a trusted source, i think you got most potential backdoors covered (although the cpu microcode might still be an issue).

skimming through coreutils’ copy.c, emit_verbose is called on line 2627 while copy_reg is called on line 3103 (in the implementation of copy_internal). at least on my machine, touch /tmp/foo && cp -v /tmp/{foo,bar/} returns an error after printing the verbose output.
