I was browsing around and found this https://github.com/NexusOne23/noid-privacy-linux a tool written in bash to audit your linux system and generate an AI prompt to help you fix these issues, it looks pretty cool overall but im not very trusting when it comes to these types of tools.

You need to give root to the tool in order to scan your whole system and make AI work on it, wich for me is a red flag, but whatever

Has anyone tried this, audited the code? I read some overall but i dont know much about bash so

Looks like a scam to me. It can do all these tests to find security issues, but instead of telling you how to fix things (or do it itself) it has you input it to an AI?
