What makes you think his code is open source?

Asking ChatGPT I get this:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No, EtreCheck is not open-source software. It’s a proprietary diagnostic tool
for macOS, created by Etresoft, Inc., primarily designed to help users
identify and troubleshoot performance issues on their Mac systems. While it
provides transparency in system diagnostics and has a free version with
limited features, the source code isn’t publicly available.

Given that it is no open source it would be weird if he opened the source.

Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.
