Not discrediting Open Source Software, but nothing is 100% safe.

Completely missing the point. Collective action is what makes open source software accessible to everybody.

You dont NEED to be able to audit yourself. Still safer than proprietary software every way you look at it.

While I generally agree, the project needs to be big enough that somebody looks through the code. I would argue Microsoft word is safer than some l small abandoned open source software from some Russian developer
