    This has always been true. If you are downloading an exe off the internet, it can be malicious. I am amazed by the streamers and Youtubers that seem willing to run anything. When I gamejam, I only write games that work in the browser and I only test/rate games that do the same. Unless you have a quarantine machine purpose built for running unknown code, it is really the only option.
