How to remove the static message that appears when opening a Linux shell?

Question

How to remove the following message:

To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo ". See "man sudo_root" for details.

Every time I open a Terminal it appears. I upgraded from Ubuntu 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS and it seems that update made that.

I am using bash.

Answer 1

I googled that and found this command:

$ touch ~/.hushlogin

Answer 2

atleast my ubuntu 14.04 machine will display(or run) all the script in /etc/update-motd.d(motd => message of the day) directory.

ll /etc/update-motd.d/
