Just saw that one of the biggest open-source projects we all rely on was compromised for weeks because a single lead dev’s machine got owned by state-sponsored hackers from North Korea. This wasn’t just a quick script; it was a calculated, long-term play to inject malicious code into the global supply chain. It’s terrifying how much of our digital infrastructure hangs by a thread. We preach about the security of 'many eyes' in open source, but when the gatekeepers themselves are targeted, the whole system becomes a weapon. If a developer at that level can be breached, what hope do the rest of us have? We need to stop assuming code is safe just because it’s public. This is a massive wake-up call for how we handle trust in the dev community. The era of 'just download and run' needs to end before the next update nukes half the internet. #tech #security #open-source
