You think that if an entire government was running a specific *nix operating system that the NSA couldn't develop an exploit to gain access to the OS?

Android phones run Linux and get hacked to get root access. Routers, IoT devices, and lots of other hardware run Linux variants and get hacked all the time.

This idea that people hold that if only we didn't run Windows we'd all be more secure is silly and naive.
