The premise of this article: that closed source, company owned software is better secured, is utter rubbish.
Closed source companies have been hacked so extensively most citizens and every US Federal Employee of the western world has be owed. The most highly kept nuclear secrets were leaked or stolen. The most guarded industrial secrets have been lifted by other countries.
This antiquated idea that making a small list of people who have access and putting ownership into private corporations is inherently more secure has proven to be folly time and time again, yet organizations continue to espouse it like it’s some kind of truth. It’s a falsehood.
Open Source has thousands of well intentioned eyeballs looking at things, and that is a very effective form of security that truly makes things secure.
