@foss In reference to this post- https://lemmy.ml/post/6374732
For Molly, I kept seeing this popup by Google when downloading Molly FOSS from fdroid.
Should I be concerned? What should I do to ensure I am downloading Molly from a trusted source if Fdroid isn't an ideal place (due to misleading names as depicted in the referenced post)?
Eh, I think there's definitely some legitimacy to doing a virus scan for applications with unrecognised signatures
Not everyone knows how to (or even can for many apps) manually verify the authenticity of their apks
And plenty of non-technical people will just install random shit from the internet without thinking
And yet most malware comes from the Play store.
