That still doesn't address the fact that you can't opt out of selinux.

And I'm not wearing a tinfoil hat; the settings and code complexity of 
selinux is immense, and Snowden documented well the way NIST-sponsored 
projects had been specifically engineered with weaknesses.

I remember a consultant working for NIST made the same allegation all 
the way back in ~2002-2003 (!) with regards to NIST-sponsored 
crypto-algorithms. I tried google searching him, but he has dropped off 
the search engines. At the time, the press did a "whoo hoo, crazy 
disgruntled employee..."

But Snowden vindicated his claims so many years later...
