Unix paranoid hippies

I love how inconsistently paranoid Unix people are. They won't include "." in the path or make ssh/scp commands which accept passwords as commandline arguments, and are so anal about these kind of things all the time, yet their cp, mv, etc. will so happily crush files without prompt by default.

Of course it's part of security. If you can accidentally shoot yourself in the foot, isn't that a threat to integrity and availability? Hello?! Do you even know what integrity or availability are?

Fuck off and learn something about security before coming up with some stupid arbitrary definitions of your own. Even the most basic books on security preface with "security = confidentialty, integrity, availability".

Security is protecting assets from unauthorized users.

No, it's a lot more than that. I rest my case: you don't know what you're talking about.
