I'm thinking this will probably not extend to the majority of code produced. Intuitively, I'm guessing the military produces the most code of any branch of the government. And I'm not sure i believe that we should all have access to that code to use as we see fit.

I don't know which branch produces the most code, but military wouldn't be a bad bet I guess.

I can see the downsides though, like somebody publishing code with keys or credentials in it. That seems like a fairly likely error.
