Except that if everyone assume that someone would have done the audit, it would also simply mean that no one have done it.

Just do a research on reddit or quora (or google ofc): there’s always the same kind of formatted response.

This is a foolish - if not dangerous - way of thinking.

    That’s the point, nobody does. There is no proper audit. And I don’t trust random people to do the audit properly.

        Okay, I now trust some random people on the internet instead of the original authors of the software.

            This is correct. You can’t trust all of the Linux developers either, which is why we have Linus Torvalds and other maintainers with a good track record overseeing things.

            Do you not understand how software development works or do you just choose to ignore blatant problems with untrusted forks of popular software?
