There’s a RAT in Arch Linux (because someone made one downloadable in the Arch User Repository) is about the same level of non-sense as telling the story of how Windows ships with hundreds of viruses because those can indeed be freely downloaded as .exe-files from the Internet which you can access via Windows. 🤣
Now that I think about it… It’s even worse. You cannot actually get an AUR package without explicitly installing the tools to get them (and most likely reading the disclaimers and warnings for using the AUR on the way), while you can can in fact download and execute malicious content with the pre-installed Windows tools.
