This is an annoying trend that's driving me nuts where I work to.. Somehow they are justifying it in the name of security. ( Even to the point of stripping comments from all applications.)

    I tend to ask people to elaborate on that, and ask them to explain how this is helping security. I also might point out that $ > /secret/file works even better (sure, it has some side-effects, but isn't security important enough that we can justify some side-effects?)
