[issue]: Remove BLOBs from the source tree · Issue #2795 · ventoy/Ventoy
github.com
What happened? Due to the recent XZ-Utils drama I checked the code and I'm appalled. There are more BLOBS than source code. https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/tree/3f65f0ef03e4aebcd14f233ca808a4f8946...

Ventoy is a tool to make a USB with multiple ISOs bootable, letting you select which ISO to use on boot. Another newly-created account claims to be the dev’s friend and translator and has received no contact from the maintainer.

    I banned that one now too.

    Some common threads I’m seeing with these troll accounts:

    • lemmings.world
    • new account
    • claim to be or know the creators
    • make claims about the insecurity of an open source app
    • blame china in some way
