And yet so many critical open source projects have had majorly serious security bugs that have gone undiscovered or unfixed FOR YEARS.
Despite the claims otherwise (with 0 proof), FOSS has next to no advantage in the security realm vs proprietary stuff. At the very least the security guaruntee you get from open source code, is that you have the ability to verify the code (and not pre-compiled binaries you get from the project's website) has no backdoor or otherwise malicious crap in it.
