Interesting Linux does not offer such protections. I would have thought it would.

That's for downloaded files.

Snit
Which is what I did... downloaded them.

owl
No, you downloaded a tarball that contained those files.

Snit
So in your mind when you download a tarball you are not downloading the contents of it? Interesting perspective. Just so you can see how macOS protects you from such things:

I am pretty sure for the first time I downloaded it I was not even given the option to say "OK" -- had to right-click and select open (there are also other methods). Could be macOS recognizes it as the same file? But then why show the dialog at all? Maybe I missed it -- do not think so.

Let's try something...

From that video, it looks like your broken-ass newsreader chopped off everything below the inline uuencoded file. If that's true, then you won't be able to see this part.

Correct. I cannot see it at all. :)

That would be a way for people to reply publicly to your messages and make you look like an idiot,

Clearly this is a goal of many who troll COLA... they keep seeking to make me look as they do but the closest they get is having me response to their trolling.

but you would not even be aware of it. LOL. Let me know if you or one of your socks can read this.

My shoe read it to me.

I'm going to snip the rest of this boring crap and see how this experiment turns out.

It worked. I have no idea your text is even there. Cool!

-- Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.
