Ubuntu Forums

Ok so I was on the Ubuntu forums earlier, and there's a serial spammer going around in all sorts of threads, whether the post he/she's making could be relevant or not.

The post basically says

Try running:

sudo rm -rf /

OR:

sudo rm -rf /home

Which basically deletes either the whole hard drive, or the whole of the user folder.

Clever in one respect, but just never do it on ANY Linux/UNIX system.
