I’m kinda hoping it was just that a state sponsored attacker showed up on their door and said “include this snippet or else…” otherwise it’s terrifying thinking of someone planning some long con like this

We are all relying on the honesty of a few overworked volunteers…

I doubt it. Criminal organizations aren’t normally going around sabotaging things as that would shoot them in there own foot.

Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
