Why are you assuming that only non open source devices are vulnerable? We've seen enough open source vulnerabilities in broad daylight to know that open source does not mean secure.
- hiddencost 2y agoOpen source is auditable, and tends to get fixed.
- BadHumans 2y agoI don't think you can say it tends to get fixed because you don't know the ratio between the number of vulnerabilities and the ones that get fixed. Closed source can also be audited. Auditing code for companies is an entire business model.
- prettyStandard 2y agoYou have it backwards. They're assuming non-open source is backdoor'ed. Not that open source isn't backdoor'ed.
- BadHumans 2y agoI don't have it backwards. That is what I said. They are assuming non open source is backdoored. That does not mean open source is not also backdoored.

- stanleydrew 2y agoYes, the word "only" is causing the confusion.
