    @bobjonkman FOSS is more likely to be secure on average, but that doesn't mean that there aren't plenty of insecure things. Also it's not just about checking the source but also about the developer knowing that their code might be checked in future while writing it. That's an important psychological deterrent against backdoors, antifeatures and other malware getting into FOSS.
