Ventoy source code contains some unknown BLOBs, still no word on the issue from the dev after months (github.com)

I had no idea this issue had been identified. While I find this tool very useful, the project is seeming rather questionable to me now.

That linked reply doesn't explain anything. It just says "bro trust him". Just because you and the AUR maintainer says its trustful, does not make it clear whats behind the binary blobs. It doesn't matter what anyone says, if we can't verify. In my opinion, its absurd calling others absurd for not trusting the word of others.
