First, I use ksh, so the kiddie is looking into the wrong history. ;^)
Second, I'm trying to keep him/her/git out by not loading a trojaned package.
Once the scumbag is inside your box, it's much harder to throw them out. In
fact, a reinstall is usually in order.
Third, if they don't do it already, I'd like kpackage, gnorpm, and similar
tools to always check signatures before loading a package. (And, for the GPG
public keys used to have come with trust signatures from the installation
CD.) That would really help with all the newbies to *nix coming on board
now.
PS: If you don't trust your gpg or rpm, boot off install CD # 1, switch to a
text console, and use the ones on the CD. QED. :^)
