Public Money, Public Code
The state I lived in developed one of those covid tracking apps. I asked for the source code and was told it wasn't available and would never be. I talked to people working on other software developed for the state and they all think that software shouldn't be public.It seems crazy to me that taxpayers pay for this software but it doesn't belong to them.Knowing what I do know I gotta wonder if it's just about those developers being ashamed how bad their software is and don't want others to see it.
