Hackers Infiltrate Official Bitcoin Gold Wallet Repository

Bitcoin Gold Wallet Download File Hacked
On November 26, Bitcoin Gold’s development team posted a “Critical Warning” revealing that for four-and-a-half days — from November 21 to November 25 — users who downloaded the official Windows wallet from the Bitcoin Gold website or GitHub repository also received two suspicious files of unknown origin.
Presumably, these files were created to steal user funds or information, so the developers strongly advised anyone who downloaded the Windows wallet client during this period to take extreme caution to protect themselves and their funds — even going to far as to wipe any machines that downloaded the malicious files.

How is it that EVERYTHING is hackable, how is it that NOTHING is safe ANYWHERE?!?
Greetings minnow!
How do the developers of the wallet not recognize that in their "official" release? I'd say it's time for people to switch to a different wallet where the developers / authors are bit more competent about their software releases.
That's a huge deal for the Bitcoin Gold itself and the wallet.
