** Summary changed:
- Compromised text
+ Charset change garbling output
** Description changed:
- After doing `cat /dev/urandom` in a terminal window, and then stopping
- the output with Ctrl+C, the text entered to the terminal AFTER those
- actions and text printed gets compromised.
+ Doing `cat /dev/urandom` will eventually switch charsets by echoing
+ U+000E SHIFT OUT (due to ISO 2022).
The following picture shows a terminal windows after these steps were taken:
1. Command "cat /dev/urandom"
2. Ctrl+C to stop it
3. Command "sensors"
