The question is simple. I wanted to get a general consensus on if people actually audit the code that they use from FOSS or open source software or apps.

Do you blindly trust the FOSS community? I am trying to get a rough idea here. Sometimes audit the code? Only on mission critical apps? Not at all?

Let’s hear it!

    Packaged products ready to use? No.
    Libraries which I use in my own projects? I at least have a quick look at the implementation, often a more detailed analysis if issues pop up.
