Is anyone else have their antivirus alarms go off on visiting this repo's URL?

The main distribution file for this project consists of a python file that embeds multiple python files inside itself encoded as a binary bitstream in a bespoke archive format attached to the end of the file. Maybe this is triggering your AV heuristics?

No, visiting their repo url triggers a port scan.

Visiting a Github repo "triggers a port scan" is breaking news level stuff.

Didn't happen.

This made me laugh and now I feel bad. Somehow I didn't expect HN users to be using antivirus software.

		When your corporate overlords insist on such things, one runs such things. And then some sites throw alarms.
