      I’m intrigued, but this seems like the perfect spot to put malware.

      Edit: Ok, so this comment I’ve replied to is a link to a video, not a link to download an app or extension like I thought it was.

        Its open source code and Louis Rossman has a big following. If it ever gets anything malicious put in it the world will know quickly.

            It is open source. And it is free as in beer. It’s not free as in speech though. But I understand his reasons and they are justifiable IMO given the android ecosystem.

              From my limited understanding, open source means a very specific thing. So this is just “source available”.

                Yeah “Open source” can be many things and the definition is often misused. I would say it’s FOSS without being FLOSS. As you say “source available”.

          Are we talking about Grayjay from the video or the link in the comment I replied to?

        The license chosen expressly allows him to release the dogs on anyone who modifies the app for the purposes of malware distribution

        The app is open source. Rossman even tells you to check yourself

          That would help if I had any idea what I’m doing with code.

          I just know I see a comment with a link to something different from what’s in the video posted above, and I’m not sure about clicking that link in the comment.

        it’s open source. feel free to check and compile it yourself.

        In fact, Louis adresses the malware problem in the video

          I’m not asking about the video, it looks legit. I’m wondering about the comment with a link that I replied to.
