    Did you fabricate that CPU? Did you write that compiler? You gotta trust someone at some point. You can either trust someone because you give them money and it’s theoretically not in their interest to screw you (lol) or because they make an effort to be transparent and others (maybe you, maybe not) can verify their claims about what the software is.

      This all or nothing attitude is boring.

      No they don’t fabricate the CPU doesn’t mean thry should hand out their data to some corporation …

      Trust has no place in computing.
