So, serde seems to be downloading and running a binary on the system without informing the user and without any user consent. Does anyone have any background information on why this is, and how this is supposed to be a good idea?

dtolnay seems like a smart guy, so I assume there is a reason for this, but it doesn’t feel ok at all.

    I hate that I’m linking to Reddit, but I’m just reminded of this.

    OT, but remember you can always use an archived link instead of a live one.
