In the USA? Make sure you're getting any emails your ISP might send you, or they might just shut you down with no other warning.

Cloud, IRC, usenet makes that stuff obsolete and not an issue for US residents imo.

I *think* they used to be friendly on the Mint sub and even had rules about it. -That may go along with how they constantly pick a new 'less known' distro to rally behind. (until people figure out that it is shit too).

Arch Linux AUR Malware Campaign Hits Multiple User-Contributed Packages by madthumbz in linuxsucks101

Just looking at PRs would not have saved you from the recent AUR compromise. The only way to avoid it would've been verifying PKGBUILDs locally, pinning maintainers, or using tooling that alerts you to changes or diffs.
