I think we already know how to build secure tech, we just don't because of the cost, which is not 2x or 10x but way higher to the point that is deemed not worth/feasible both for private companies and governments, so it affects everyone and we are not getting out of it anytime soon (if anything sometimes we go in the opposite direction following the goal of money and calling it innovation). Heck, I think it would take a book just to even explain all the components of this argument. Go figure do something meaningful about it. Safe/unsafe languages is just one piece of this thing, and frankly a quite easy one to wrap one's head around: we already have so much stuff we use everywhere written when memory-safety was not really cared for and no-one wants to rewrite / catch up / surpass (there you go: because of the cost). So we get on with it, because meanwhile life goes on, bread needs to put on the table, people want to play with their shiny phones and whatnot, etc.
