anyone can download Ghidra, which means so can our enemies.
I haven’t and I won’t as I’m wonderin what spyware is included with this...
True.
I was simply giving you a first-hand evaluation of Ghidra from an established hacker (paid).
I asked him because he has no reason to willy-nilly open it up without using his own tools to strip it bear and look for “any cooties in there.”

YMMV
Do you think Q would post this if bad?
If you aren't a JAVA coder there is no need to download Ghidra. This de-compiles code so that you can read it. The purpose of this exercise is to look at the code and find out what it's doing that you can't see.
