      Why not just any tech? It’s already obsolete. Nobody is going to profit from it. Why not let couple nerds tinker with it?

      IDK, I probably wouldn’t want every anon having access to the source code for my cybereyes, let alone something like a pacemaker. Companies should be legally mandated to maintain devices like these for the average human life expectancy.

        Missing the fact Open Source software is generally more secure because more people are looking at the code. You don’t need to see the source to find a vulnerability, you do need it to patch one properly though.

          It’s definitely one layer of security. If it’s your only layer then you’re in trouble.
