@falktx You're right, but I mean, open source can be just as dangerous as arbitrary binary code. The openness is only an *opportunity* for security, but you need enough competent people to look at the code for it to make a difference. Also that it's compiled from the exact same code that's available.
People who believe it's safe just because it's FOSS need to rise their guard a bit. Especially as Linux grows and becomes more of a target.
