Kinda why nobody serious actually follows the Foundation client anymore.

So while watching the movie about Wikileaks Assange makes a comment about one of the biggest mistakes that he made while establishing Wikileaks was recruiting some unreliable people that ultimately turned out to be undercovers according to him.
This raises the question on whether the foundation is/has already been infiltrated? Are a bunch of Dr. Evils trying to introduce potentially flawed technologies (or could have already introduced them) and have them within the source?
Of course the average pseudo-intellectual would argue that we can all view the source and if we deem it unjust we could just fork it, this answer is not satisfactory and fails the same way democracy fails. If we watch over statistical data we can see that the political party with the most hours in the media always takes the first place, we can then establish that the average person lacks absolutely any means of thinking for themselves. How is Bitcoin any different if the strongest leaders all have their Gríma Wormtongues whispering nonsense into their ears until they lose the ability to think rationally and ultimately turn against us, the community?
