It is the technically literate who have been the most trusting, swallowing

i wonder which "technically literate" you mean
having worked closely with folks who were top security nerds (one literally
wrote the book) in a segment of open source software, i am very familiar with
the security process that community uses; the whole community (Drupal) is
constantly reminded how tenuous their security might be by weekly security
advisories, as well as by a review process for all submitted code which often
admonishes poor security practices; there is no perfect security; ultimately,
there is no security
