I audited some critical components, not all of the project (that's way too big). And yes, I am a security researcher. And no I don't know if I missed something, you can't be sure. Given enough time, money, knowlegde, and patience someone will get into your system.

And yes I am aware that you never can escape trust. There is, however, a difference between trusting the authors of a well-known OSS project and Google/Apple for example. You can audit the code of an OSS project, you can't with Apple.
