  • Open source and proprietary software development have very different goals. Open source is generally about making software that’s useful. Proprietary software’s goal is to make money by any means necessary. Viewing it from that angle, open source devs and the community are more motivated to keep an eye out for backdoors. While proprietary software, they won’t give a fuck until something affects their bottom line. Just because of that, I feel safer using open source software in general.
