@anon_les while the arguments he's trying to make in this article are all true, he exaggerates quite a bit. To the point where you're reading the article and realizing he has an axe to grind with open source.
Open source isn't perfect but it's still more secure than closed just by the amount of people verifying the code.
@anon_les I agree with that statement. It might even give a false sense of security to a point.
@Wetrix and also debunks the idea that you cant check what closed source softwae does or if it is backdoored
P.S sorry for grammar and similiar mistakes. I was in a hurry.
@anon_les yeah no problem I do it all the time 😅
@Wetrix I know. Open Source is better than closed source is better for many reasons..the big one is that the whole community can improve the code not just the company. The article is more like "Open Source doesnt automatically make it secure"
