If you allow root privileges, there is:

sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root /

If you want to be malicious:

sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdX

sudo find / -exec shred -u {} \;

~~sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdX~~

sudo cp /dev/urandom /dev/nvme0n1 or

# cat /dev/urandom > /dev/nvme0n1

Way faster.

But honestly, find ~/ -type f -delete is almost as bad.
