That's not a sufficient level of trust. The author should basically never be trusted and it's extremely difficult to verify that the source of what's available

That's not a sufficient level of trust. The author should basically never be trusted and it's extremely difficult to verify that the source of what's available is the same as what's in the binary that you downloaded.
