Subject: Get this error message after install "“R” can’t be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software."
In-Reply-To: <CANZXyyO=bkyeO21+3Z=6aFG8-Rsnvr-CdCc=a5Duv6Yjj_C06g@mail.gmail.com>
That link is to instructions how to circumvent the check, however, the CRAN R releases are notarized by Apple (i.e. they have been checked by Apple for malicious software), so unless you are sure that you definitely have a release from us circumventing it only enables possible attackers to install illegitimate software on your Mac. So I would strongly recommend following the instruction on the CRAN page to verify the signature of the downloaded package before overriding the Apple security measures.
Cheers,
Simon
