Kind of, but if the code is indeed open source, it wouldn't take long for someone to point out if there's something shady in seedsigner's code for example, so the amount of trust is still very limited, especially over time. Then again, if you don't verify the source when you download firmware, you are blindly trusting a potential danger. So that part's on you.
