KairuByte@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks agoPeople need to stop touting FOSS as more secure. More auditable, sure. But there are many, many examples of FOSS applications being insecure or abusive.
The bottom line is just “be wary of what apps you install period.”

Sure, but I didn’t mean to say that FOSS couldn’t be insecure. Software itself can obviously be insecure, like we saw with xz. At least with FOSS though, it’s more difficult for it to be hidden.
