Question: If the Trace can detect underage magic, why was Harry blamed for Dobby’s magic in CoS but not for all the magic performed around him at the Burrow?
I’ve always found the rules surrounding the Trace a little confusing.
We know the Ministry can detect that magic was performed near an underage wizard, but apparently it can’t always determine who actually cast the spell. That explains why Harry gets blamed for Dobby’s Hover Charm.
But then how does this work in wizarding households like the Burrow or Grimmauld Place? Wouldn’t the Ministry constantly have to distinguish between magic performed by adults and magic performed by underage witches/wizards?
Is there an actual canon explanation for how the Trace works, or is this just one of those things that doesn’t completely hold up when you think about it?

**Question for Kali Linux beginners**
I’m pretty new to Kali Linux and so far I’ve been messing around with Nmap, Wireshark, and a few OSINT tools.
What are the **top 5 things you think someone should learn first** when getting into Kali Linux?
Also, what’s something you wish you had learned from the beginning instead of figuring it out later?
I’m trying to put together a solid beginner roadmap for myself, so I’d love to hear what you guys recommend.
