#hashsum

I don't think anyone have ever checked hashsums or checksums for softwares

Every now and then, when I see download sites for oftentimes open-source software, but also things like ASUS' router firmwire download sites, they talk about making sure that the downloaded files matches a provided hashsum, or else you're doomed.

I have yet to come across anyone on the planet who've ever actually checked the hashsums, checksums, ASC signatures, or anything like that.

It's one thing that 99.992% of people don't know how to crosscheck a hashsum, but the software pretty much always work as intended anyway. Always.
