This is not a marketing operation run by NSA which can claim success if they catch the 90% dumbest. Quite to the contrary, they should be most interested in the most sophisticated ones, and why wouldn't bad guys use OpenBSD if they had the impression it was more secure? As I have mentioned before: what good is perfect security in an OS if you have no control over the hardware? Put some back doors into the CPU or the networking hardware and OpenSSH will fall. There is really no point in trying to outwit three letter agencies with our laptops.
