PEP 402 doesn't really change anything regarding corporate checks of
code provenance - those relate to how the code is acquired and
installed in the first place, not how you use it at runtime. If
engineers are doing end runs around corporate policies, that's not a
problem that technology can realistically address :)

Cheers,
Nick.
