+- Requiring remote assets, including `require(assetId)`, `loadstring()`, `Class.InsertService:LoadAsset()`, and `Class.ModuleScript.LinkedSource`. Assets that may look useful on the surface could load another "virus" asset at runtime.
+- Including obfuscated code. For publicly-shared assets, it's important for creators to understand what they are putting into their experiences. If code is obfuscated, creators cannot trust that the script is only doing what it should be doing.
