Just like the languages that have unsafe code blocks it is relatively easy to track down unsafe modules, same thing.

And just like languages with unsafe code blocks, there are compilers that have switches to forbid the use of tainted modules unless explicitly allowed.

In any case, way better than what C, C++ and Objective-C offer, regarding security per line of code.
