After getting a comment from the creator of kanata (an awesome piece of software by the way) that he found my story amusing, I figured that I’d also post it here, partly as fun, partly as a cautionary tale. Also, I’d appreciate any tips as to what to check for in my system, it’s a weird feeling to know that some stuff might have been messed up under the hood.

    That’s fun and also horrifying. Consider the fact that your keyboard history likely has your password it. You could end up running sudo commands and authorizing things unintentionally

      ya don’t have to enter your sudo password if you’re already logged in as root
