Yes, important to keep in mind that software being open source doesn't automagically make it secure™.
Still, I think it's important to stress that the benefits of open source outweigh the risks when it comes to security (imho).
I agree with that.
I don't agree with how it has been presented by the grandparent here as if open source somehow automatically makes it secure.
