I think it&#x27;s great you&#x27;ve shared this. With the recent SIP changes, thousands of Stack Overflow guides that involve &quot;running a few commands with sudo&quot; are now potentially broken. If devs&#x2F;users are unfamiliar with this change, they might follow an out-of-date guide and become stuck for hours. It almost happened to me last week when I tried following a stack overflow post to fix some symlink issues with &#x2F;usr&#x2F;bin&#x2F;. Fortunately I read about SIP previously on HN and was able to work around it. But I&#x27;m worried for the thousands of other devs that haven&#x27;t heard of or encountered SIP. There needs to be more awareness of this change because it affects much more than people expect.<p>Takeaway: if you&#x27;re following a OS X guide that involves sudo written before 10.11, keep SIP in mind or you might get burned.
