gollark: If you're talking about contact tracing, there was a proposal for how to do it in a decent privacy-preserving way.
gollark: You seemed to be suggesting that open source was somehow worse than closed source software for security, which I disagree with.
gollark: <@!707673569802584106> Basically everything uses open source software in some form. If your security is compromised by people knowing how some component of your application works, it is not very secure in the first place.
gollark: <@183773411078569984> Proprietary software can suffer from the whole trusting trust thing exactly as much as open source software.
gollark: It would help a bit. But having supplies for weeks to months of being at home is hard.
