I notice that the getsymbol tool on Github has 214 stars, and no banner to indicate that the tool is malicious. There is a recently filed issue with a link to the Google blog post, but that's it.

If anyone from Github is reading this -- I strongly suggest adding a banner or modal dialogue to warn users about the backdoor in this tool, and any other software with a known backdoor (e.g. forks of the project)
