Do you have any actual evidence for actual users shipping insecure products because they mistakenly believe Yocto takes care of security for them? This has been the situation from the start of the project, certainly this was the case 5 years ago when I joined it, and the only person ever to make an issue out of it is you. Everyone else seems to understand the deal they're getting by using Yocto without a commercial support contract. Yes, there are millions of insecure yocto-based devices out there, but there reasons they are insecure have nothing to do with what you say. Alex
