      Just like how no one has ever put anything malicious on Wikipedia. Nope, never, not once

      This is wrong and ignorant. It happens all the fucking time. Software vendor supply chain is a huge fucking issue.

      Christ, tell me you have no idea what your talking about with 1 sentence vibes.

          Lol no it doesn’t. It happens weekly, all the fucking time.

          Source: I’ve been developing oss software for 20 years and have had to push hundreds of teams to fix their vendors bin.

          Chill == I ain’t got shit to say 🤣

              Hey I know it sucks when someone isn’t nice to you, but that person is about as right as can be.

              Just a month ago thousands of malicious commits discovered on git made the news. Unaudited repositories are a huge vector for attack and have been for years.

              If that person seems pissed off you could chalk it up to hearing about this stuff on newsgroup discussion two decades ago.

        Software vendor supply chain affects ALL software. It is caught much sooner with open source.
