I hope you don't use Linux, because the NSA contributes to quite a lot of OSS. They also created SELinux for instance.

- mattigames 8y agoThose changes on OSS are reviewed by a lot of people, this here is just released and reviewed by themselves only.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 8y agoSure, the ones officially contributed by the NSA. What you have to wonder is how much code was contributed by some seemingly normal community member that is actually a front for the NSA to introduce subtly flawed code that they can use to their advantage while being plausibly just a bug? There are those who suspect Heartbleed came about this way.
- AsyncAwait 8y ago- SELinux has been free-software for over a decade, with many open-source contributions. - Many people don't use SELinux, especially on distros like Arch, Gentoo etc. where it (luckily) doesn't come as part of the package, SELinux is far from universal.
