I understand that probably there is little interest if you are a device ROM maintainer to embed a backdoor into it. But it’s still possible. Lineage has a fairly simple and open build process. Should I do it on my own? Or should I trust the maintainers and not bother? What are your thoughts?

    We are talking about maintainer’s backdoor in build, not in original code 🙂

      even if you compiled the code yourself, unless you can audit code yourself you still have to just trust the developers

      That is what I was referring to. What I was saying is even if you cant audit the source code you still have reasons to trust the code

        Yeah, I have many reasons to trust the code. Definetly. If it is in build and nothing else then we are good!
