Well, from bash(1):

This of course suggests to put aliases into ~/.bashrc. (or
/etc/bash.bashrc) But I don't think that helps much. There may be
millions of people out there, that have put their aliases into
/etc/profile or wherever, and we have to take care of them too.
But that's easy, you can just run "unalias -a" to turn of all aliases.
