Can anyone say for sure if Microsoft isn't putting their botnet shit into their .net framework?
You will be subject to someone's botnet regardless if it's not Microsoft's
>>51907276
It is not explicitly stated in the terms and conditions like in Windows 10 at least.
>>51907276
How do you know that your compiler isn't compiling botnet code into your programs? :^)
How do you know that whatever libraries have a botnet inside them? :^)

Some people don't use proprietary compilers and libraries.
>>51907276
No one would develop for it if they would
And you can also use Mono

How do you know there isn't a few lines of backdoor sneaked in? Did you read through all of the sourcecode and monitor any additions over the years?
>>51909184
That is regularly done. Just read the sourcecode, any sneaky behaviour would be catched right away.
>>51909208
>That is regularly done
I highly doubt someone reads through 30k+ LOC.
I'm guessing most people just say "Hey it's opensources so it's safe, someone would have surely caught the backdoor if it existed" and then no one actually does.
>>51909227
Its enough to review new commits when they show up.
>and then no one actually does.
For any big project there's always a bunch of interested people that take a closer look.
>>51909115
Because I use Linux and everything is open source.

niqqa, its caught

They are normal humans that have to follow the laws of physics like the rest. They are not magical creatures you conspiratorial nut. A botnet would likely also be noticed during usage and not only in code. But the code would be highly visible and just random code nobody knows what does would not be added to the project.
>>51911272
yeah thats how remote code execution "bugs" arent present in open source software. shellshock wasn't in your fucking system for 26 years. and nobody in the world could ever build something like this artificially. holy shit are you stupid
