No, there aren't wildly scary warnings. It will ask you if you are sure you want to delete stuff, which is a precaution against slippery fingers. 
Feel free to indulge in secret agent fantasies while you get rid of old computers, I certainly won't stop you.  |
Ha ha, eschwartz! Bleachbit is a trip! I got rid of the Home folder and it freed up 16 GB. (Which is like half of my hard drive.) And now the computer is fast again! Which is perfect--I'll keep it as a backup as it has all my programs and favorites. (I had been planning on pitching it.) Thanks.
P.S. I chose the "shredding" option. And that means that 16 GB is available for use now, right?
PSS. What would have happened had I chose the "overwrite" option?
Thanks!
