    Yeah not much to see here. GoDot just makes it easier to bypass the antivirus because of the code it outputs. It’ll take a while and future malware that uses it will be detected the same way other malware is. I’m guessing antivirus companies will start unpacking and scanning the .pck files. Just like they do with similar archives.

    One should not put their full trust in their antivirus anyways.
