rookeh@geddit.socialto.NET@programming.dev•Moq now ships with a closed-source obfuscated dependency that scrapes your Git email and phones it homeEnglish

1 year agoSounds like the dev was unsatisfied with the low sponsorship numbers on his project, which when you consider how many devs only ever interact with Moq via the package manager or command line might be a fair complaint…but the decision to just start harvesting user data like a lowlife as an alternative source of income is some galaxy brain shit.
It’s not like this would even be sustainable. What did he think was going to happen, devs would just blindly accept a new shady looking package appearing in their dependency stack with no further investigation?
As a result of this stupidity Moq will now be on the shit-list of every corporation using .NET, especially those based in Europe due to GDPR implications.
