The Rust authors condemned the world to play their stupid game of semantics when they created the `unsafe` keyword.
The feature turns off extra compile time checks. That’s it. It doesn’t mean the program is correct.
This program still allows potentially damaging things like `rm -rf /`. So, it’s not data safe. It’s unknown whether it’s secure safe either, since it’s not been audited and it’s still “alpha”.
