Ventoy is a tool to make a USB with multiple ISOs bootable, letting you select which ISO to use on boot. Another newly-created account claims to be the dev’s friend and translator and has received no contact from the maintainer.

Exactly, but being that this thread involves the country known as China, the reason to distrust those proprietary blobs is the CCP. If this thread were about an american dev, the threat would be NSA/CIA, if Russian FSB, on and on, as such.
Russia is currently involved in a big-ahh war and actively threatens the west. I don’t see why the CCP would be a greater concern.
Did he travel to Russia? I thought you said he traveled to China. If so aaah “because he’s there?” If he was in Russia I’d be inclined to agree regardless of his nationality that Russia would be the be the bigger threat, in my opinion “the country he’s in” would be a step above “a separate country that is at war with another separate country.”
I misunderstood you.
No worries!
It doesn’t “involve the country known as China”. The country has nothing to do with it, which is why it stood out to me for someone to be fearmongering about China. If it was an American or Australian dev, I doubt very much that concerns would have centered around their nationality.
What country did the guy travel to? I thought they said it was China, if not then my mistake, but if so, “yes it does.”
If there was an american national dev in a country where america couldn’t touch them, and they suddenly traveled to the US and dropped contact, it would certainly be suspicious that the NSA or CIA could be involved.
Chinese guy goes to China and doesn’t push any commits for awhile. Simplest explanation is that “the CCP” has abducted him.
It’s definitely not impossible. Whatever it is I hope dude is ok. And I still encourage the use of FOSS whenever possible.
