I want to install MAS to my clubhouse’s computer so I can share MS Office with our member, but I wonder if it’s really safe.

Some people on Reddit say that it’s a trojan

https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/16rdsc4/regret_using_microsoft_activation_scripts/

They say that I can check the source code since it’s open sourced, but I’m not sure. It’s too complex, and downloading several files inside a script. I haven’t checked yet but it can be downloading some blobs, idk.

Also the domain of the official page sounds suspicious… “mass grave”??

Edit: I use Debian btw

    No, we’re not. We’re just a group of people in a university, lol

      In all jurisdictions where I have personal experience, getting some “group of people” properly registered as a non-profit organization usually isn’t too much of a hassle.
