UO is a good example of this. I've been part of the UOX project from
those distant days in 1998 and I can assure everybody that whatever
Origin did to obscure the code and the communication protocol, we've
been always able to decript and understand it.
Having or not the source code is not the problem. It's always better
to have more eyes on your code, so bugs and security issues are
spotted earlier and often fixed by other people in no time.
And you always know who's doing what to against your servers. If a
hole is spotted, you get the same notice wanna-be-hackers do, and
you are aware of what to do in order to block them promptly.
