>Can you be a little bit more obnoxious?

If you can’t understand very simple logic like, how open source vs closed source is the perfect example of open vs closed… well source, then guess who is out of his depth here?

calling me obnoxious and not responding to literally any point i have made in the entire comment chain is an interesting way to win an argument.

good luck.

Yeah you’re trying to win an argument, I’m trying to find what’s true.

I won’t lose time trying to understand what your tech poser logic is trying to piece together. Hiding your source is not how you secure software. It’s how you pretend to be secure for your shareholders.

That’s the main reason open source software is more secure than closed source. You don’t need to hide secure code, it actually makes it less secure because less good actors will be able to help you secure it.

It won’t change a thing for malicious actors.

So again, for people who might read this, he’s very, very wrong.
