His post is super unclear but I think he is concerned about someone getting their hands on his source code. In general, a compiled Go binary is not trivial to reverse engineer, so there’s some security through obscurity there.
- st3fan 8y agoNot 'someone'. Google.
- nikki93 8y agoYour secrets are not safe by embedding them in a binary. Compilation is not (necessarily, and at least so in the Go compiler's case) security...
- saagarjha 8y agoNot a whole lot, though. A determined reverse engineer will likely be able to grab something close to your source code without much difficulty, assuming you haven't applied any wacky obfuscation.
