+
+      "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
+      form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
+      editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
+      represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
+      of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain

+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
+      publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
+      Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
+

+      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
+      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
+      as of the date such litigation is filed.
+
+   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
+      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
+      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You

+          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
+          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
+          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
+          the Derivative Works; and
+
+      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
+          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
+          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
+          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
+          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
+          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
+          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
+          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
+          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
+          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
+          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
+          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
+      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
+      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
+      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
+
+   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

+# IAmRoot NuGet Package [![NuGet Version](http://img.shields.io/nuget/v/IAmRoot.svg?style=flat)](https://www.nuget.org/packages/IAmRoot/)
+
+This project demonstrates that any NuGet package can run arbitrary code on your machine.
+
+![I Am Root logo](assets/i-am-root-nuget-package-nuget.png)
+
+> TL;DR; Installing NuGet packages **is** (_and have always been_) a security risk, and you should only install packages from trusted sources and trusted authors.
+
+
+## Background
+
+NuGet used to support PowerShell scripts that could be run manually by developers, or run automatically by NuGet, for example, after packages were installed (`install.ps1`) or uninstalled (`uninstall.ps1`), which was useful for packages that needed to perform an initial setup and clean-up things after, on uninstall.
+
+With [NuGet v3](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/nuget/NuGet-3-What-and-Why/) and [`PackageReference`](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/nuget/NuGet-now-fully-integrated-into-MSBuild/), PowerShell script support was modified to no longer execute install and uninstall scripts, with one of the reasons being that they are [tightly-coupled to Visual Studio, and inheritantly not cross platform](https://twitter.com/terrajobst/status/1168206087402610688).
+
+Microsoft didn't provide any real alternative or migration path from `install.ps1` causing [frustration](https://github.com/NuGet/Home/issues/6330) among developers and in September of 2017 the NuGet team started tracking an issue to [come up with a strategy for packages that have install.ps1/uninstall.ps1](https://github.com/NuGet/Home/issues/5963) which, as of this writing over two years later, didn't seem to have any progress.
+
+In [discussions](https://github.com/NuGet/Home/issues/6330), **many developers seem to have the false sense that installing NuGet packages became a "safe" operation after Microsoft dropped support for executing PowerShell scripts (e.g. `install.ps1`), which is not true**.
+
+> Installing NuGet packages **is** (_and have always been_) a security risk, and you should only install packages from trusted sources and trusted authors.
+
+
+## How to Run
+
+Add the **[IAmRoot](https://www.nuget.org/packages/IAmRoot/)** package from [nuget.org](https://www.nuget.org/packages/IAmRoot/) in any project:
+
+```xml
+<PackageReference Include="IAmRoot" Version="1.0.0">
+  <PrivateAssets>all</PrivateAssets>
+  <IncludeAssets>runtime; build; native; contentfiles; analyzers</IncludeAssets>
+</PackageReference>
+
+```
+or
+```powershell
+Install-Package IAmRoot -Version 1.0.0
+```
+
+Build the project where the `IAmRoot` NuGet package was installed:
