Yeah seems like basic hygiene especially given the supply chain attacks but also a lost cause. No one has the skills to do builds without the internet. Even forcing teams to use an allow list for the internet involving fighting a lot of angry people.



One of the few decent uses for containers is to enforce proxied internet so build process artifacts can be auto-stored for subsequent builds.

For the worst offender I am aware of, try building a flutter project... it silent internet gets artifacts from at least three different packaging systems (node, cocoapods, android packages), all of which have caused hard-to-debug failures.
