To add to, or maybe rephrase, your comment:
I think the "Good Thing" will be the speed of the response and corresponding fix to these problems. Corporations such as MS, who emit a continuous stream of press releases saying they are addressing the problems, or saying that their product is the most secure while ignoring the problem, will begin to look silly. The faster the response and fix to the problem, the more likely future users of Linux, and FOSS in general, will see that the FOSS community are serious about their security, and hence the more likely they will consider FOSS for their computing solutions.
Cheers!
