The same argument applies for the following command.<p>wget <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;example.com&#x2F;script.sh" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;example.com&#x2F;script.sh</a> | bash<p>If you trust the source, you might as well install it.  Otherwise, we&#x27;re basically arguing that everyone who has ever installed any non-distro software is an idiot.<p>Consuming http or the connection dying and script ending early and being left in a weird state is probably a more interesting argument than the trust issue.
