I hope the catch is that everyone who tries to install it from github gets ransomwared.

Bonus if it also rickrolls them all the while.

It's such a culture shock in this comment section but FOSS MalDev is absolutely not as uncommon as you might think. A nice trip down to VxUnderground rabbit hole compiling and deplying some samples is tons of fun for an afternoon for any casual ghidra enjoyer.
