"I look at software the same way cryptologists look at encryption algorythms--they should both be open for inspection, but still be secure.

Well, then you don't know much about cryptologists. The NSA has many algos they use and are classified Top Secret and above.

I admit I'm being anal here, but no such thing as above Top Secret, just different compartments within Top Secret. NSA crypto would probably be TS/SCI/SI (Top Secret, Special Compartmented Information, Special Intelligence).
