The code will get better. Linus' Law: "given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow": we'll be able to get community contributions and bug reports, and thus the code will grow better faster than we can grow it ourselves. Also, Joy's Law - "No matter who you are, most of the smartest people work for someone else": we'll get better code from people who don't work for us than from people who do.

We'll write better code. Wall's 3rd great virtual of a programmer, Hubris: we'll write better code people we don't want other people to say bad things about us. We'll do better with the world watching than with just us.

| The location security mechanism is that once a mobile is registered to a | |
| network, it is issued with a temporary mobile subscriber identification | |
| (TMSI), which acts as its address as it roams through the network. The attack on | |
| this mechanism uses a device called an IMSI-catcher , which is sold to police | |
| forces [488]. The IMSI-catcher, which is typically operated in a police car tailing | |
| a suspect, pretends to be a GSM base station. Being closer than the genuine | |
| article, its signal is stronger and the mobile tries to register with it. The IMSI | |
| catcher claims not to understand the TMSI, so the handset helpfully sends it | |
| the cleartext IMSI. This feature is needed if mobiles are to be able to roam | |
| from one network to another without the call being dropped, and to recover |
