Can't believe Hot Fuzz hasn't been mentioned yet.

If you're looking for genuine space opera, I quite enjoyed the Final Architecture series by Adrian Tchaikovsky.
Love that series but it's not really Space Opera
It's a remake that uses new, higher quality assets though, so isn't an option in this case.
Bear Head by Adrian Tchaikovsky delves into this kind of psychology from the interesting angle of treating Narcissistic Sociopaths as an alien form of consciousness. It proposes that sociopaths hijack human social interactions, turning others into mere appendages that carry out the sociopath's desires.
I'm a developer and don't hate it on its face.
IMO it's only a problem in the context of iOS not having side-loading. I'm imagining an app that uses an API to block ads and Apple just being like "no" and then you can't get that app.
Glances at climate change rumbling towards us.

It's worth pointing out that reproducible builds aren't always guaranteed if software developers aren't specifically programming with them in mind.
imagine a program that inserts randomness during compile time for seeds. Reach build would generate a different seed even from the same source code, and would fail being diffed against the actual release.
Or maybe the developer inserts information about the build environment for debugging such as the build time and exact OS version. This would cause verification builds to differ.
Rust (the programing language) has had a long history of working towards reproducible builds for software written in the language, for instance.
It's one of those things that sounds straightforward and then pesky reality comes and fucks up your year.
The comment was about strategy, not objective.
Lol, whoops
