#12all tax payer funded software should be open source
I see this sentiment all the time, but it could never apply to the defense sector. Do you really want our nations enemies to have access to the source code of fighter jets, cruise missiles, the nuclear weapons program, or missile defense systems?
how are those systems going to be secure without being audited by the market?
the reality is that this military industrial complex is just a way to print money and funnel it into the hands of a few criminals. all of the major news publications openly told you that the USA has been attacked over 100 times in the middle east AND WE LEFT. The public is going to find out very soon that this massive, expensive military can't actually defend against or defeat other militaries. That when you spend $1000 on a hammer everything looks really flashy and impressive AT FIRST with your fancy jets and missile systems, but after enough time, and after enough of the money has been funneled out, you realize it's a paper army. the USA is so weak that Iran is pushing them out of the middle east and there's nothing the theives that run the military can do about it. but don't worry. they already manufactured a Palestine sympathy story ahead of time to explain why they have to pull out and run away like the cowards they are. and your son's and neighbors sons will pay the price with their lives

Depends on your nation maybe, but if you are anything but American, it is definitely a threat to your national security.

Every time I’ve been involved with selling software in any way adjacent to national security they’ve required source code review.

How are you equating a "code review" to open source, the difference is the difference between asking a couple dudes for advice and asking the entire world for advice. I'm sure the argument sounded really good in your head, but let's be adults here when it comes to the United States military

Even more reason to tackle monopolies and break up 'too big to fail' companies.
