>I am going to say open source is killing reversing.
I suppose cracking killing shareware. All products for users should be open source. There are many other pretty ways to get money from developing programs. Technical support, documentation, etc. Model of free open source apps works fine. Developer doesn't spent a lot of time on protection, others can help him with bugs.
For example my friend is developer of small games. Early all games were shareware. He tired delete cracks from file shares. For now, all products is freeware with donate system. He works more on improving soft. He get much more money via donate model than via shareware.
Maybe it's a objective of crack scene? Free non-bugged, good open source applications.
