In case anyone had the same kneejerk reaction: no, this is not about privacy etc. Just performance, according to OOP.

Still, this reads like a reaction to a recent overblown debacle.

edit: no, it actually does say "hardened security" in the README, lol, but the whole project seems to boil down to some compiler flags.

Honestly, OOP should've broadcast that fact. It is a lot easier sell than letting people think they changed the code somehow.

Not sure why they are trying to show it as a seperate project.
