I understand that it’s open source, so it can be examined by anyone. If it will compromise your computer, someone will discover it and report that. That’s one benefit to it being open source.

Let's say you are an FR user, and you don't want it and don't install it. Could others out there who have it be discussing or even outraged about something you posted and be bandying your screenname about without your knowledge?
