How can you talk about transparency in your ANN yet be closed source?

Hi wiggle
i think there is no such one-way street from being open source to being transparent, and personally do not think every closed source projects are sniffing data for NSA And CIA Wink

choosing any type of licensing/EULAs including opensource(MIT,APACHE,GNU) and/or closed sources is a serious legal decisions, specially for projects developed/funded by private company, Me, on behalf of Kaze Team, and as A co-founder of the project can assure, we want to make the best decision for our community. we think we still have time to open the source code to public ,fully or partially.
just in order to make my point a bit clearer for you there is A coin An***ian they later re branded under some other name they have a lot of "MIT Licensed" product, almost 3.4 billion USD market cap , it is almost two year i am following their GitHub page. last thing uploaded there , is a read me file with single line of text "we are going opensource" Cheesy

, and have not been updated for almost two years Cheesy

there is literally nothing.
another example is about one of the most popular opensource, Linux base operating systems which once I heard from Richard Richard Stallman publicly said they have some evidence show this "LINUX base OPENSOURCE OS" is gathering users data for one of the biggest online retail shops in the world.
