This is probably one of the worst excuses I could find. The software being closed source doesn't prevent *AT ALL* any kind falsification. Relying on such a blatantly wrong security scheme is the best way to discover falsification too late. (In fact, the reason why it works is that nobody really *wants* to falsify the results; at least not enough to take the time it requires to do it.) -- .''`. : :' : We are debian.org.
