I understand that point of view, but to think that oss is "hiding" malware just blew my mind coming from a tech security manager.

I work for an ambulance service and asked our higher up managers about this. I was initially fobbed off with "that won't be an issue because Microsoft won't enable it." When I pushed and said what if, I was told it wouldn't happen, because Microsoft has withdrawn it. When I pushed one last time and suggested a Linux or other OSS alternative would resolve the issue, the head of IT security said "the NHS doesn't like Open Source because it could be hiding malicious code" ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

@Lokjo @librewolf @aral
Looks to me like it's time to move back to @Vivaldi who have at least been very transparent when it comes to (recent) privacy settings.
