Terminal Command Question

That command should be benign, and is an attempt to scan a logfile for certain data from the past week.

For command details and syntax, see:

man log

I’d also use && and not AND for the command. (Best follow the examples in the log command documentation.)

And be aware that various text-related tools will insert or will provide angled quotes and angled double-quotes, when shells usually want the vertical quotes and vertical double quotes characters. Not the angled characters.

When that concern arises (and it can), create and use a separate macOS login (preferably without admin access), and avoid using sudo in either login. That isolates damage to the current login. Have backups of your data too, as current and complete backups are the ~only way to mark data as being valuable.
