I’m thinking that software like Signal, Bitwarden, Firefox and RHEL is more likely to be pushed (by unconventional methods) to introduce backdoors under Trump 2.0. Less complex software that is developed by an international community is of course less suseptible.

What do you think? Will the risk be higher during Trump 2.0 or is the FOSS community diverse and international enough? Am I just paranoid and irrational?

Closed source software and cloud is of course a no brainer since always. But clompex FOSS with centralized development and hosting pretty much suffers from the same problem.

    Your not being irrational, but paranoid but I think in a good way. Many people here don’t understand what horrible things may happen to disenfranchised people next year with Nazism 2.0 project 2025.

    Good to learn and understand these things and figuring it out to help others. Wish more people looked into this. I may not know but makes me feel helpful others are looking into these things more
