Supply chain risk.
- the_mitsuhiko 2y agoPlease explain your reasoning.
- cdchn 2y agoSomebody else is building your binaries. You've added another link in your software supply chain. How do you know they haven't inserted malware?

How do you know they haven't inserted malware? You're installing untrusted random packages from PyPI. There are many much weaker points than Astral giving you malware for fun.
- cdchn 2y agoSure it happens, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't think about reducing it.
