Oh really? You read the entire codebase of a project before downloading it, and every time you update it, you go over every single change like you’re the Greek God of code review? Because if you’re not, by your own standards, you’re opening yourself up to “additional attack vectors”
What you’re describing is possible in certain circumstances , but it would expose the companies to an insane amount of liability. Also, open source software can introduce vulnerabilities that could be exploited to do the same exact thing. Open source software is not inherently more secure. Remember that time malware was introduced to the Linux kernel directly as a research project?
I’m not going to touch your other points, but you clearly have no idea how encryption works if you claim that any proprietary program using end-to-end encryption is insecure.
Ah interesting, seems he immediately downvoted you too!
I love how the majority of comments in this thread have a single downvote. I wonder who’s doing that 😂
Hey, I didn’t quite get it. Can you copy and paste this reply a few times more? Thanks.
