    the deb.debian.org redirector could be ("geolocally") failing. You could try replacing deb.debian.org with a country local mirror (usually http://ftp.xx.debian.org/debian), and putting back the default debian security url (http://security.debian.org/debian-security). Even if it's http, debian will still validate signed checksums.

Finally after two days, many videos & cred to LiveWireBT and kemotep that helped me a lot. So the problem was that my sources were deleted from /etc/apt/sources.list, and the solution was to re-add all sources. I did that by running this command:



vi /etc/apt/sources.list


And then I typed e & cl and then replaced everything inside of that with:



deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ stable-updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ stable-updates main contrib non-free

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-security stable/updates main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian-security stable/updates main

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch-backports main
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch-backports main


Then I had to exit with the ESC-button, and type :wq! sudo to save and exit.
After that I updated my packages using sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade and it all worked after that.

    Finally after two days, many videos & cred to LiveWireBT and kemotep that helped me a lot. So the problem was that my sources were deleted from /etc/apt/sources.list, and the solution was to re-add all sources. I did that by running this command:



    vi /etc/apt/sources.list


    And then I typed e & cl and then replaced everything inside of that with:



    deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free
    deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free

    deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ stable-updates main contrib non-free
    deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ stable-updates main contrib non-free

    deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-security stable/updates main
    deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian-security stable/updates main

    deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch-backports main
    deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch-backports main


    Then I had to exit with the ESC-button, and type :wq! sudo to save and exit.
    After that I updated my packages using sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade and it all worked after that.
