Not discrediting Open Source Software, but nothing is 100% safe.

Lol that's literally me. They get me everytime. I have to learn how to audit

I don't know how to audit code. But I can generally get through. For example, I use Aegis for 2FA OTP. How do we know it's secure? Because I can see very clearly that it doesn't have network access on Android and that it hasn't tried to get network access.

No, but you do!

I don't use the term "open source". I say free software because giving someone else control over your computing is unjust. The proprietor of the program has absolute control over how the program works and you can not change it or use alternative versions of it

“We can review the code”

“But did you?”
