Richard and all,

  Open source software for some uses does provide for some
utility.  By a opposite token, open source software for other
uses is an inhearent privacy and security risk for obvious reasons
so indeed such also misses the point.  I am in favor of any Good
free software, but not a proponent of all software being free of
course.  Free software is the choice of the creator, not of the
potential user.
