Okay? So you probably also don't trust Microsoft.
Well then if you use Linux, it's pretty secure. But most money goes into headless servers.
Do you trust the GNOME project, is it well funded? Or KDE or whatever.
Actually fundamentally. Do you trust the X Server?

- Mathnerd314 7y agoThe X server is known to be insecure, in the sense that keyloggers can steal credentials from anything else running. But in that sense no OS is particularly secure besides Qubes OS. The discussion was on phones, there the issues are mostly core Android's lack of updates from manufacturers (but quite good record of Google releasing patches) vs iOS's closed-source buggy OS. IDK, security is hard. The easiest solution is to get a nice clay brick and smash whatever phone you have to pieces.
