Not fallout but increased vigilance is the expected most significant outcome. Some 5+ years ago or so I listened to a Debian guy his talk about reproducible builds and security, he was stressing the audience to be aware of just happened in a very detailed manner. One of the details he mentioned was glowies having moved their focal point to individual developers and their tooling & build systems. At least some people who matter have been working on these threats for many years already, maybe more people will start to listen to them; in such case this entire debacle could have a net positive effect on the long run.
