Their browser based on Chromium and when there is source available it's at least possible to see how fast they apply security fixes from upstream. For end-user of product there no way closed source browser can ever be more secure.

Huh, so what it the license then? I notice that 1.8 is the latest version for downloading but on the source page you linked to the latest is 1.7. Do they release source for previous version only?

I looked around a bit and didn't see anything about the license on their site. If I missed it and someone has a link that would be appreciated!

to clarify be more secure _because_ it is closed source.
