From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Oh yeah, not putting any blame on you, just agreeing with the person above.
On a related note, it's not even good practice to copy/paste commands directly from the browser to a terminal at all, because it's possible for unicode/js tricks to completely override what you think you're yanking to your clipboard. So copy/pasting a curl-to-bash is a double whammy of bad practices.
I much prefer the practice of stating plainly, "here's a script, consider it an example, make sure you read it first, and run it at your own risk".
