Do you audit every software you run? Which linux distro are you running? What do you do before installing a package you want to use?
I wouldn't just install everything I find on the internet but at some point you have to be realistic.
- amazingamazing 2y agoI'm not sure what your point is. I was just pointing out that duration of existence is not some sort of guarantee that there's no malware.
- echoangle 2y agoThe point was that there is never some sort of guarantee, unless you personally audit every single piece of code and build it yourself with a compiler you built yourself on a computer you designed yourself. But having an established project with a long history and many users and external developers can give you some ammount of trust in the safety of it.
