People say to me go look for it and I can only see the absurd of proprietary software that they use, such windows, Microsoft word, outlook etc.

These are all spyware, talking to a health care professionals is talking with Microsoft too.

    This is just reality. No medical people have secure shit. I’ve worked on hospital services before and they are all security nightmares. The doctor isnt an engineer. Trust the doctor if they know what they are doing. Your data was forfeit because of capitalism not the doctor.

    If it’s good enough for the NSA and other paranoid intelligence agencies and military, I think it’s good enough for our healthcare orgs.

    But I do get your sentiment on a user level. If one of my comp sci professors is using Linux in lecture, they are instantly more credible to me than those who use windows (or MacOS!!) unless I have known them for a while and have found out firsthand.
