> restic - Shell, Command, Upload
Well, now I feel a little vindicated tinkering so that my backup wouldn't run as root. Instead it runs as a regular user with read-all-files capabilities [0] and no login shell.
Of course, that's still probably overkill on my desktop, and any attacker that got that far would still be able to read basically every file on the computer and sneak backdoors into the backup...
