The *BSDs are nonexistent in the raw data [1].

Of course less code leads to less security holes. But 0/376? Or is project zero excluding BSDs entirely?

I don't believe Chrome provides support for BSD, which explains why it's missing.

How? I referenced the underlying data. They have Microsoft kernel bugs. Zoom bugs. Even systemd. What am I missing? I think they coincidentally happen to have their bug tracker hosted on chromium’s site.
