Python apps were already quite capable, lua is just the new scapegoat indeed.I hope lua public image will not became new boogyman. Because lua does amazing things to Assetto corsa.
For some reason i see that as a positive reminder. The apps and mods on reputable sources have a proper peer reviewing. When i discuss AI apps with other modders, we share our code. Hard to integrate anything malicious if 50 people are lurking into your code on each update😉.
The pirated and shadowy sources of mods however, especially obfuscated ones (ya know, the one with encrypted bits), are way riskier. Guess it depends on your sense of adventure.
Funny thing, that last security drama comes from an encrypted ppfilter that was sold... On Patreon. Since it was apparently running like crap perfwise, someone just decrypted it, discovered it was a ripoff of another ppfilter (bonus), and exposed the malicious bits as well.

Something to remember, the guys behind those scams are rarelly the crunchiest chips of the bag. They run their activities far from your usual talented modders... And trusted mod places.
