you wouldn't totally escape it, but you'd see it coming if you combed through the code or paid attention to others combing through it. You can also ignore your car alarm going off if you don't believe it's not detecting a real incident, just another false alarm. If you become lax in believing that OSS will provide you with complete security, you leave out the human factor, yours and others to dupe you.
