Interesting weaseling of SourceForge is to add a "downloader" which fetches either the actual unmodified installer/sources. The "downloader" installs adware while fetching the real installer for the software. In the case of GIMP the filename of the downloader was made to be the same as the filename expected of the installer for a given version. This dirty approach might be thwarting ways of protecting with cryptographic signatures, or even trademarks/copyleft. |
