- Fake commit history
- No source code, despite being hosted on github
- Windows-only binaries available for download
If I weren't on my work computer I would pull down those binaries to see what is in them. It sure smells fishy.
Neverclick is digitally signed with Microsoft Trusted Signing (now known as Azure Artifact Signing). I had to send them my address and ID to get my identity verified so that I'd get approved for it.
Is there anything else I can do to put your mind at ease?
If this is intended to be an open source project, transparency would go a long way. The source code and actual history will make a big difference. If this is not intended to be an open source project, then hosting it on a source control system is misleading.
Not releasing source code is fine, but then you need to build trust. Is it paid software? Is there a company or a known name behind it (in which case, can you host it on that entity's website)? At minimum, toss up a website that describes what the software does, what the usage terms are, and whether it collects information about user systems and/or uploads data anywhere. Bonus, scan it with Windows Defender and a couple other malware scanners. Advertise that it scans clean.
