"Someone comes along, packages it - modifies it because they disagree with code that asks for money"

honest question (and I know that it is not your main point, I am just curious):

Do you know any cases of the example you gave actually happening with a distro package distributed in a distro official repositores?

I just did the math. With the death toll in Gaza over 7,300 from Israeli bombardment, that's equivalent to *295* September 11ths, proportional to the population of Gaza

Just in time for my talk on #Mobian at kochi2023.mini.debconf.org I got screen sharing working with Jitsi Meet, Firefox and Phosh on #Debian Trixie.

To protect your privacy and shield yourself against 0-days and malicious advertisers, an adblocker is an important part of your security stance.

The FBI, NSA, CISA, and UK National Cyber Security Centre all recommend adblocking as a protective measure.
