Project Zero has uncovered 2033 issues... The majority of those could be used alone to ruin your life. The rest might require 2 (Eg. one for the sandbox, one for the kernel).

Thats a team of ~10 security researchers over many years...

Considering how many are being discovered each day/month/year, chances are that there are at least hundreds undiscovered...

If it only takes one to ruin your life, and a good security researcher can find one in a few weeks, or months at most, the barrier to someone evil is really really low...

> good security researcher can find one in a few weeks

s/good/extremely good/

This doesn't change the fact that someone evil will still probably find one.
