The latest release from Wikileaks apparently shows that *everything* is vulnerable to remote snooping; Windows (of course), Android, MacOS, Linux....everything (well, maybe not CP/M or BeOS or Plan9 or AmigaDOS and things like that...)
Heretofore I had had what I guess was a false sense of security from using Linux.

Does anyone have any thoughts on whether Linux can actually be made secure or not in the future?   I guess that once things get off one's machine onto the net all bets are off, but it would at least be nice to know that unwanted things can't get in.

Anyway...bummer. Any thoughts or suggested reading?
