Like a privacy based fully open source browser. Wouldnt it be more hackable because every one know the script and is a glopal privacy based gpay alternative possible ? What about targeted hacking is someone using closed source application more better off than someone with ooen source ?

    Putting aside the idea that everyone can read the code and find/fix exploits, sometimes it’s good to be open to vulnerabilities because you know where/what to fix.

    Sometimes closed code it’s exploited for years before the owner or general public finds out, and that leads to more problems.
