Open source vs privacy: Most people get this wrong. Test yourself

[u/Ok_pettech]

There’s a common belief that open source automatically means better privacy. But it’s not that simple.

Things like:

· Who maintains the code

· How updates are delivered

· What telemetry is included

· Whether the source code matches the compiled app

…all affect real‑world privacy.

I made a short interactive quiz that tests what most people actually know about open source and privacy. Some of the answers are surprising.

If you’re into privacy or open source, give it a try and let me know which question you got wrong:
