I'm not extolling virtues of an Sync's code. I also don't understand why a lot of people automatically think that open source is better "because anyone can look at it". All I'm saying that to me it's much of a muchness. I don't understand code so open or closed it's not a draw card for me.
It's not just about security, it's about community and freedom from all users to modify and redistribute the software. It leads to a much healthier ecosystem.
It's fine if you don't care though.
