    I’ve always hated the phrase “trust but verify.”

    It’s a nonsensical oxymoron. It’s like saying “I trust my wife not to cheat on me, but I verify it by having her followed.” Then you don’t trust your wife dude

    I’ll get off my soapbox now.

      That’s why in Germany we instead say: Trust is good, but verification is better
