Modula2 was from an era before the internet was ubiquitous and everyone had computers in the pocket. To compare lack of uptake of a "safer language" from a time when the internet and attack surface was so much smaller to now seems disingenuous. C and UNIX go hand in hand, nobody is disputing their worth or tenacity. I fail to see how a proposition that is not new detracts from Rust.
