Hello, hope you're doing well. I greatly appreciate the effort of you
people to make open source projects like you do, but I must ask.

I have heard that security is quite lax when installing modules using the
most popular sites for Python modules. Would you know of how I would
protect myself more from potentially malicious fakes of popular Python
modules?
