- dotnet consideration: on debian12 there's ''/etc/profile''. On some systems there may only be ''~/.bash_profile''. debian 12 for example says that if it finds that it'll override ''/etc/profile'' and ''~/.profile'' If you're using dotnet, you want to turn off MS spyware (as best you're able). Add this line: ''export DOTNET_CLI_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT=1''
