I’m basically with you. Even if i switch to Linux I have to trust the company behind the distro to act in good faith, I have to trust Cryptomator to encrypt my files without backdoors, I have to trust Mozilla to securely save my passwords and so on. On the other hand I don’t want Apple to scan my own files on my own machines. Like… wtf…

- netizen-936824 5y agoWhy would you save passwords in a browser when there are FOSS utilities like keepass?
- livinginfear 5y agoTechnically, you don't. The beauty of FOSS software is that you don't need to trust the author. I know that auditing the source code of something as large as a Linux Distro may be prohibitively difficult for one person to do alone. Groups of people do audit them though, and they have found nefarious things in the past, in the case of Google.
