The disputes about Open and Closed Sources Software existed for a long time and I believe that they will exist also for a long-long time. Open Source Software has a lot of fans, whereas the amount of other side's fan is not less or even bigger.
As mentioned in the article "Increase Security Through Open Source" the access to the source code can benefit not only the users, but hackers also. I sincerely believe that it is much better to have the same opportunity as the hackers have, than rely only on patches produced by closed source software developers.
Also I think that people really improve the software through access to the source code. Everyone wants to use the software with comfortable and reliable GUI, that's why people try to improve and bring something good into Open Source Software.
