Are they infiltrating open source projects too now?
Yes check the XZ Utils situation from like 2024
Ever since the invention of open source. Even industry standards such as the original RSA were intentionally ratfucked by malicious state actors.
The XZ thing was almost certainly some nation state actor, imo.
Whats the XZ thing? Im out of the loop
some rando gained the trust of the xz maintainer and tried to sneak in a very sophisticated backdoor. luckily caught, but i wonder if we had another project compromised and don’t even know about it.
If you have an hour, this video from Veritasium about it is pretty good.

The Nix project has some unfortunate support that made it’s way to some level of influence if I’m not mistaken. Its sort of like enshitification 2.0 but with fascism instead of money.
