open source's role in security

10.1: addx/security/open source's role:

. the thing to remember about the security of openware,

is that it doesn't mean the binary can't be obfuscated:

. the source code can tell you how the target code is dynamic,

and how the dynamism is encrypted;

so, then knowing the source doesn't provide much help

in attacking the target code .

. on the other,

suppose dynamism and encryption isn't bullet-proof?

we need to have a different view of how software works:

. what is it that is making networks unsafe?

computers could be a lot smarter;

eg, I don't have trouble authenticating

even a short vid of a family member .

10.2:

. why is it needing to be in ram?

the self-policing unit should be a rom chip,

or a flash drive that can only be accessed by

some bullet-proof authentication .
