FYI to new users… Do not run any command without knowing what it does. Especially that one. Not even if they say “don’t worry, rm prevents you from deleting your hard drive’s contents now”, … like I fell for, 21 years ago. Doh!
FYI to old users… Stop telling people to do that. It’s not funny. Getting new users to delete their root directory… not cool.

Freeze? Nah, it’ll keep chugging along 'til you reboot (or otherwise try to run a new program), and then won’t be able to start.

This is what happened when I deleted the root directory in high school.
