But it's still better to not have to trust a giant, multi-national corporation at all.

Absolutely agree, but how do you do that in practice?

Do you self-host your services on some Linux distro? How many FAANG employees have upload access to that distro or maintain its infrastructure?

(Or maybe you audited everything yourself and you're 100% confident in your audit, somehow, and you've turned off automatic updates. How many FAANG employees are working on fuzzers to automatically find new exploitable security vulnerabilities and scale out those fuzzers on their employers' infrastructure?)
