I was being serious even if it came off flippant.

There is no way to be 100% certain of your security with a system as complex as a computer so if you need 100% certainty then you have to assume you are compromised, even if that is a very low probability.

Now that I think about it, that's the same reasoning Batman used to justify attacking Superman in the movie.
