Don't worry about that. If these people processed external data for
two months with software containing more than 30+ exploitable
vulnerabilities then they either dead/offline permanently, or already
hacked. In both cases they lost control over their hardware and won't
complain.

Regarding command line utilities - they are quite stable in terms of
CLI interface and compatible.
