How do we know if there aren't a bunch of more undetected backdoors? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

@mfat It's the old problem about bugs. To know that a piece of software has no bugs you should be able to count them and if you could do it then should be able to locate them and make a fix. But you can't then there's no way to know there's no more undetected backdoor

Of course being open source helps a lot but there's no solver bullet
