    No operating system is trustable unless you coded it entirely yourself on an air gapped machine with your own hand crafted compiler, and even then you are still exposed to hardware backdoors

      That implies you can trust yourself to even code a compiler in the first place.

      Can you?

        Not even sure why your mind decided to turn this into a personal attack, but it’s a good sign you just want to be blocked

          I didn’t; I just followed the line of logic you have established that the only way to be sure is if you do every step of the chain by yourself, ignoring, ya know, the entire point of society making progress.

          But sure, you do you.

      You’re confusing “trust” with “can guarantee to beyond a shred of a doubt that the system is not compromised in any way”.

        And you’re confusing an established industry phrase with specific usages with the more generalized concept
