Not directly relevant but interesting...

This is a product developed by Google that has at least been utilized internally to some extent. It's not perfect, but my previous company used it and it does prevent unexpected unknown code from running in the background.

What it does not do is prevent someone from intentionally downloading and executing a library unless the upvoter actually comes to some demand that you do so. I found that it quickly became a bit of a "alert fatigue" where you approve things your coworkers send you so they can get back to work without properly vetting.

Many developers have this set to “only block known malware” for obvious reasons.

Thank you for sharing this! This is very cool. I'd use this on my personal laptop. It has a pure local mode.
