Three thoughts:

* That's an absolutely viscerally horrifying logo

* I absolutely love it and its design

* I am confused about why it's used for a project like this and not some kind of internal NSA project, or maybe a nu-witch house band logo, or something




LOL

Thank you on all 3 points!!

I intended to invoke thoughts about how Extism enables one to "extend from within", thus the octopus crawling out from the skull. And also that the thing Extism should replace is rather cursed... loading DLLs / dlopen tons of plug-ins into your program to execute untrusted code is downright scary.


The logo is symbolic of the product or thing right (Extism), not other things?

Not sure I would get the escaping from part by looking at a logo.
