Hacking [PSA]Verify ALL .nsp and .xci files regardless of where they come from, even homebrew

You can definitely trust anything I release tho.

That said making backups with hekate is slow and inefficient. Better to recommend reinx toolkit dumps because they are so much faster and therefore more people will be inclined to backup and backup frequently.

A lot of people will be more likely to make backups if it only takes 17 minutes instead of over an hour.

Any HB can be malicious. You can check it only by full decompilation of app.

I believe it’s only when you run it. You will know if your switch stops working.

Although I haven’t heard of any malicious nsps floating around since pokemon Let’s Go Pikachu/Eevee
