Canonical on trust and security in the Snap Store

Here's a posting from Canonical concerning the cryptocurrency-mining app that was discovered in its Snap Store. "Several years ago when we started the work on snap packages, we understood that we could not instantly implement an alternative that was completely safe from all perspectives. In addition to being safe, it had to be useful. So the challenge we gave ourselves was to significantly improve the situation immediately, and then pave the road for incremental improvements that could be rolled out gradually."
