"MS Windows source code is available under license. This is not surprising since the DoD, NSA, and other similar agencies require access to source code. Have a nice day."
Okay... But you can freely download open source off the net without signing some stupid license agreement and probably in the case of Microsoft, forking over a chunk of change. Thus, more people look at Open source code than Microsoft code. Have a nice day yourself.

The original issue was availability of source code to government agencies such as the FBI, DOD, CIA, etc, not a bunch of teen hackers. MS has met that burden.
