Snaps was initially tooted as the bestest securest container based application solution by Canonical back then. It is impossible for the app the steal your data, they said. Because of "secure encapsulation" and such. So, that means that there is no need for a review process for uploads, just to make installing packages even more easier than it already is?

I'm sorry, Canonical and Ubuntu are the point were Open Source Software apparently breaks with its traditions. No review on binary blobs uploads most certainly made with OSS when marked "proprietary"? They are kidding, right?
