You probably don't. You can still use gopath and choose to use gopath for another project that doesn't.

    sorry, what I meant is that if you're working on a project not using GOPATH, you can still choose to place it in GOPATH while you audit the code.

  "you always know where everything is" is no longer true. https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules

    Modules can still use GOPATH. If you have GOPATH defined when working with modules, they will be installed into the GOPATH in the pkg/mod/ directory.
