  • Package managers like apt use cryptography to check signatures in everything they download to make sure they aren’t malicious.

    Docket doesn’t do this. They have a system called DCT but its horribly broken (not to mention off by default).

    So when you run docker pull, you can’t trust anything it downloads.













  • It depends where the domain is registered. The US can’t steal the domain from a German registrar.

    And even if the domain name got stolen, they dont need to clone it. Just put it behind a new domain name. It would cause maybe 24 hours of downtime.

    MediaWiki is already a global org. Even if all their US staff was arrested and the US servers seized, the rest of the team abroad would still be working.
