Skimming through that link, it seems that `yank` is for pulling _broken_ packages, whereas the suggestion above is to explicitly mark them as malicious.

Should we call the "mark them malicious" version "Yeet" or "Yoink"?
Good point. The keyword for uninstall and remove residual files should be Yeet indeed.

Downloading the latest, bleeding edge version should be Yoked

pip install yoked <package>

`npm yeet malcious-package`
