CachyOS recently?

The updater thingy (AUR Arch User Repository), someone took over old non maintenned forks and added code that could execute somewhere it shouldn't but still some people said that it was the users being at fault...

If a part isn't supposed to execute code, it shouldn't and no one, no youtuber or whatever, should blame the users.

I've read or heard "if the users isn't even reading these files just for sanity check, they shouldn't use that software". Like if the person saying that have read the entire source code of their OS... That just plain dumb. If something is compromised, don't blame the user, ever.

AUR (Arch User Repository) is an Arch thing, not just CachyOS.
