The best Unix
(sh.itjust.works)
Security is temporary. Nothing is safe.
Bravo, OP, bravo.
Closed Source is demonstrably less secure,
Huge numbers of people are constantly testing and reworking open source security.
Once closed source has a bad encryption found or accepts certain strings for SQL Queries, it becomes a feeding frenzy, and the people who set it up never put any counter measures in place because a small team never had any chance of approaching the vast well of human knowledge on security.
Just look at the news: US Government Facility Hacked, Credit Company Hacked, Industrial Plant Hacked, Proprietary Vehicle Hacked, etc.
That's the joke.
But the joke stands on the premise that people would argue over it. We're all in agreeance that closed source is not more secure.

Nah, it's the "best unix" because being one requires paying those SUS bastards.
I mean, when we're talking about UNIX, yeah MacOS is probably one of the best...
Linux ain't UNIX though...

Ok, madthumbs. Sure.
It can also be said: security by obscurity is the best scenario for the NSA
