That blog post provides nothing of value. It complains that there isn´t package signing and that´s it. It doesn´t propose anything.
In the comments the author claims removing the signing is "beyond logic" even while linking to a reddit thread in which the logic is laid out clearly. For example:

Read those links if you are curious, but I would recommend skipping the post linked by el_programmador.

- new_realist 7y agoYour comment provides nothing of value. It complains that the blog post contains nothing of value and that’s it. It doesn’t propose anything. I would propose abandoning PIP in favor of signed packages from your favorite secure Linux distribution.
- CogitoCogito 7y agoMy post points out the useful links and information found in the comments of that post. It contains _everything_ valuable behind that post. The game you’re playing trying to turn this around me is childish and pointless.
