Which lines of its libre software source code are malicious?
It's centralised
It's not about code, but about funding.
Yes, and it's the downside, no matter how you look at it.
So, which malicious lines of libre software source code have been funded? This is how we stop FUD. Don't let them derail us.
Don't get me wrong. As far as we know, no malicious code have been funded. The very fact that the Signal was sponsored by the CIA is suspicious (maybe I used some incorrect words, sorry if so). Of course, it's totally up to you whether you think that fact is sus or not.
It's not. Our devices run software, not funding.
