#1 Warning about running unknown scripts from the internets.

Closed
opened 8 years ago by shymega · 2 comments

Currently the README for /AdBlocking/ doesn't have a warning for running unknown scripts.

A warning should be added along the lines of

*You should never run a script from the internet, be it a dotfiles repo, or a script you cURL, without at least checking it first. For example, you could do ```less < script.sh``` and check for anything that might be malicious.

Of course, that's just a boilerplate really, but something along those lines would be good to add to that README, and others if needed.

I just moved all my stuff over from one repo (Scriptd_Configs) to several repos (Tutorial, Configs, Scripts). I will add this to the main README.md of "Scripts".

Thanks ;)
