The moral is obvious. You can't trust code that you did not totally create yourself. (Especially code from companies that employ people like me.) No amount of source-level verification or scrutiny will protect you from using untrusted code.

Buen artículo sobre ciborgs y confianza. Al final se centra en Facebook y desmerece un poco el resto del artículo, pero contiene alguna idea buena.
"Trust ... » involves more than a calculation of the reliability of likely future events. Trust exists, Simmel a Classical sociologist » says, when we “believe in” someone or some principle: “It expresses the feeling that there exists between our idea of a being and the being itself a definite connection and unity, a certain consistency in our conception of it, an assurance and lack of resistance in the surrender of the Ego to this conception, which may rest upon particular reasons, but is not explained by them.” Trust, in short, is a form of “faith,” in which the confidence vested in probable outcomes expresses a commitment to something rather than just a cognitive understanding."

Buen apunte sobre cómo se articula la confianza en entornos informáticos, comparandolo a como se articula entre personas:
TRUST IS NOT COMMUTATIVE
TRUST IS TRANSITIVE
TRUST IS NOT BINARY
TRUST IS CONTEXT DEPENDENT
TRUST IS NOT CONSTANT OVER TIME
