this doesn't make a lot of sense to me but uh here you go.
what it does
i wrote none of this
The Fog
Introduced on v112, prevents downgrading.
The Tsunami
Introduced on v114, prevents you from disabling WP.
WP
Write protect, the thing that protects you from writing to the device.
Downgrading
Lowering your version to do certain exploits that were previously patched.
Recover
A process done to remove ChromeOS and then reinstall it via a USB. (removes everything software related then reinstalls it.)
RMA/Factory shim
A tool used by technicians to do various diagnostic tests and do motherboard replacements easier. (very easy to modify, sh1mmer modified rma shims to achieve unenrollment)
Sh1mmer
Multitool jailbreak allowing you to unblock Developer Mode, unenroll your chromebook, access a root bash shell, and more. The exploit modifies RMA shims.
Unenroll
Making your school chromebook act as it is completely yours by doing some sort of exploit.
Developer Mode
Something that you can activate to get full root access to the system. Activate it by doing: ESC+REFRESH+POWER, CTRL+D, ENTER, CTRL+D
Fakemurk
Fakemurk is a tool made by Mercury Workshop intended for use on a already unenrolled chromebook. It will allow you to re-enroll, making your chromebook appear identical to an enrolled one, except keep developer mode, and even boot off a linux USB, all while tricking chromeOS into thinking you're in verified mode, so your chromebook will not show up any different from the hundreds of other chromebooks in your enterprise's google admin console.
VPD/Vital Product Data
Vital Product Data (VPD) refers to a set of system-specific configuration data that is stored on the firmware of a chromebook devices. VPD contains information about the hardware configuration, serial numbers, asset tags, and other system-specific details of the device.
