Don't use Rustdesk as it introduces a major risk into your environment.

Please elaborate on this. What risks are introduces?

The developers behind it are effectively faceless but they have a history of doing questionable things. I also don't like how they only place to get Rustdesk is from the developers. The entire project just gives off bad vibes. If it was something lower risk like a music player it wouldn't be a big deal but we are talking about software that connects to Chinese servers and has root/admin privileges

software that connects to Chinese servers

You can set up your own server, so it doesn't have too.

only place to get Rustdesk is from the developers.

Shouldn't it be like this though. Rustdesk is in the AUR, which downloads the source from Github, like a lot of other software packages does. You can also build it yourself.

The developers behind it are effectively faceless

https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk has contributors listed, so not exactly what I would call "faceless". Sure, there is not really any real names on it, but having real names on Open Source projects in github is not the norm.
