No it says that it will show you the script first so you can review it. What I don't get is why do you nee d a program for this, you can simple curl the script to a file, `cat` it, and review it. | ||||||||||||||

It shows you the installation script but that doesn't help you evaluate if the binary that the script installs is itself safe to run. | ||||||||||||||

Yes but even if you inspect the code of the installation script the program you just installed might still be compromised/malicious? It doesn't seem more likely that an attacker managed to compromise an installation script, than that they managed to compromise the released binary itself. |
