What is Python?

Python.org distributes malware that infects computers and steals personal information.

The site tricks people into downloading harmful programs by disguising them as legitimate software, games, or useful files. Once installed, this malware can steal passwords and personal data, lock files and demand ransom payments (ransomware), spy on activities and record keystrokes, damage computer systems, or use computers for illegal activities.

This site makes malicious downloads look completely safe and legitimate.

This domain was registered 30 years ago through the company Gandi SAS and owner is unknown.
