What [Open Source Security] is doing is constructively the same thing, and has the exact same bad effect. It's just history repeating itself.
Before they couldn't rely on easy copyright fully because the berne convention wasn't ratified yet by Congress; so they used NDAs. With the GPL, again they /were/ stymied... but now they fell back on an old solution: again: business law.
