I've encountered the word "tainted" as it has been advocated (against) regarding Linux over the years, but it was finally visually thrown right in my face by my Debian Stretch Stable several times a couple weeks ago. I've been trying to build a module for a dialup modem that is the "scourge" of many a poverty level user around the Internet.
I can't find the resulting warning/advisement message now, but it was my Debian copy's version of, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! THAT'S GOING TO TAINT THIS INSTALL! *smh*"
