Hacking How do i know if the NSP I downloaded is safe?

[Plump]

As the title says. I downloaded a SSBU nsp when the leaks were new, and now when 6.2.0 works I really want to know if it's safe, since I downloaded it from the only site out of like 5 on a reddit page that wasn't taken down

By deleting it and getting it on release.
Seriously though, refer to this:

Install the newest Atmosphere. It prevents you from overwriting the key blobs.
Should be as save at it could be at the moment

BOOT0 now has write protection for the BCT public key and keyblob regions.

• The ns sysmodule is no longer allowed to write the BCT public keys; all other processes can.
  • This should prevent system updates from removing AutoRCM.
• No processes should be allowed to write to the keyblob region.

Always have a full NAND backup and you should be generally safe, still updating to latest Atmo will make the "newb brickers" useless, which is also nice.

Dw, I got the game now. BUT someone scared me super hard when they said "Dude, you're gonna get banned, nintendo knows what you're doing and i'm sure they just wont let you go like that" If I'm in flight mode for the whole week I wont get console banned right? It would suck so badly. How do i stay safe? Can I uninstall mods when the game releases?

Golden Rule, Mod=Ban.
You can be safe, you can be safer, and you can be safest, but never 100% proof.

I successfully unmodded a switch and i play online with it with legit games now by following a guide pinned here.
Basically before touching ANYTHING, do a full Nand backup, go flight mode and mod as much as you please.
When you want to unmod, restore the backup. Its time consuming, but (in my case, results may vary) successfully got me online without ban.

Plus remember to not update while you are in cfw, cause it will burn fuses as soon as you go OFW, which means you cannot run OFW without hekate anymore.

alright thank you. so if im in flight mode the whole time when playing the pirated game and then unmodding when i get the game, i should be safe?

or you can buy the game then upload it on darknet for us

Im not confortable saying "yes you'll be safe", but it should decrease detect probability.
Again, you are not 100% safe.
Just be sure to have the constant though "will this leave any trace?" if the answer is yes, dont do it.
Have you already modded?
Which CFW?
Have you done the Nand backup before modding?
did you enabled Flight mode before backupping or after?
