Either no online access thru a website or requiring an app on your phone as part of the login process (which amounts to the same thing, no phone app, no banking).

What I meant by this was wrapping other open source libraries like libsodium etc. rather than implementing crypto libraries from scratch. I, wrongly, assumed golang might also be doing that.
It is true I have no experience implementing cryptographic libraries.
Is that the same Anders Hejlsberg who developed Turbo Pascal and Delphi for Borland, another company which microsoft successfully crushed in the 80's and 90's? (Hint: It is).
We could have C# 30 years before we did if it weren't for microsoft.
Pip is separate from python itself. With a given language can I download packages with curl and install them myself? I think I can trust curl.
The problem is not only that the tool connects to the networks, but who is behind the tool.
Google is a company whose business is collecting all the information on people it can.
I don't think those in control of python/pip have the same incentives.
As I said I love golang. I invested a lot of my own time into learning it and its ecosystem.
The time developers spend learning a language and its libraries should not be discounted.
Maybe we overestimate how much corporate backing is required to make a language a success.
After all we had successful languages and ecosystems long before any corporations became
interested in funding such things.
You mention golang's crypto. Is it true that all that code is native to the go project or
are they mostly just wrapping other open source libraries which have been created by 3rd parties?
