Here it’s even worse because you don’t see the content of the script you’re executing.


What do you mean? The content is the majority of the web page... You can copy it from there, or if you're paranoid you can run:

  curl https://fix-macosx.com/fix-macosx.py
Before the suggested:

  curl -o https://fix-macosx.com/fix-macosx.py && /usr/bin/python fix-macosx.py
That said, at this stage just set the correct preferences. I had already done that before seeing this script, it's pretty simple.


...This should just be the instructions:

  1) $ curl -o https://fix-macosx.com/fix-macosx.py
  1a) Review fix-macosx.py
  2) $ /usr/bin/python fix-macosx.py
