That would be sad for everyone. The Chinese people are, for the most part, good folks. It's the government that has their heads up their collective butts. (Not intended to be a political statement, just an observation about the state of social affairs in China.)

It's open source. Spying is not a part of the equation because it's all open for everyone to see anyway...

It's not the point that the code on the website is open-source, but the fact that Chinese spies can hack your computer through their repository to access programming files on your computer if they wanted to.

Take off the tin-hat. No one is automagically going to hack and take over your PC through an open source software repository website..
