> I would, however, trust a default MacOS/iOS/Windows system over a default Linux system. The Linux community has a track record of being hostile to the security community - for their own good reasons. Whereas Apple and Microsoft pay teams to secure their OS by default.

I think we can have the best of both worlds here: OS distributions that are being maintained by paid teams of security experts, and that can be audited by anybody.

What are the major ones? Android, Chromium OS, RedHat (Fedora, CentOS), and SUSE.
