The question is simple. I wanted to get a general consensus on if people actually audit the code that they use from FOSS or open source software or apps.
Do you blindly trust the FOSS community? I am trying to get a rough idea here. Sometimes audit the code? Only on mission critical apps? Not at all?
Let’s hear it!
It depends on the provenance of the code and who (if anyone) is downstream.
A project that’s packaged in multiple distros is more likely to be reliable than a project that only exists on github and provides its own binary builds.
