Hacked MacBook Pro

After deleting all disks in utility after recovery, I was given the option to reinstall Mac OS and for whatever reason it was Catalina not Monterey… so I went along and attempted software update which failed 4 times due to unknown errors… 

In a wiped out, clean Mac OS, I found yet again 5000 certificates in the keychain… network options were quite messed up exposing my Mac to all kinds of risks and malicious open portals. Keystrokes, mouse clicks and “copied to clipboard” 

There were multiple keyboards and option for remotely configuring device with permissions given from “apple iPhone device”. 

I noticed disk utility had unknown devices that were taking up quite a bit of space but impossible to eject, delete, or unmount….

I simply ran band aid on each one…

I tried to leave my cell phone turned off and away from MaC while attempting to reset /recover MacBook. Clearly, this made no difference as the problem seems to be deeply “rooted” literally in the hard drive of the computer! Best Buy geek squad, IT dept of my school, apple Genius Bar, alllll given up on this situation!!! Any advice? Pls !!! This is deliberate hacking and identity theft and all….
