Is this materially different than giving all files on your system 777 permissions?
Yes, because I can't read or modify your files over the internet just because you chmod'ed them to 777. But with Clawdbot, I can!
It's more (exactly?) like pulling a .sh file hosted on someone else's website and running it as root, except the contents of the file are generated by a LLM, no one reads them, and the owner of the website can change them without your knowledge.
Lesson - never trust a sophomore who can’t even trust themselves (to get overly excited and throw caution to the wind).
Clawdbot is a 100 sophomores knocking on your door asking for the keys.
