Obligatory Linux sucks thread

Hiding filenames begining with "." or "~" considered insecure.

If Bob, having a folder full of child porn, then moves it somewhere else, he has false sense of security, because law enforcement will easily find ".thumbnails" folder.

Same for Alice, who accidently deletes system files, thinking that folder is empty.

"~/.wine" folder is hidden

also, some files transfered from other OS may get hidden.

Ever got zip archives packed on MacOSX? They contain a good amount of hidden info.
