I set up a quick demonstration to show risks of curl|bash and how a bad-actor could potentially hide a malicious script that appears safe.

It’s nothing new or groundbreaking, but I figure it never hurts to have another reminder.

      True, but this is specifically about scripts you think you know, and how curl bash might trick you into running a different script entirely.
