On the spot, At defcon, 30k people. Anyone at Salesforce wanna talk about what's going on? Make a throwaway, use opsec. What are your opinions on this? What is your opinion of Jim as your leader?

Throwaway for obvious reasons.

Incredibly bad leader. Ask away.

No questions from me, but I've met Josh and the rest of the redteam. I hope they are doing well. Lots of good folks in salesforce security =)

what are this "leader"'s justifications for preventing the talks and for preventing the open sourcing of this software? Is it liability or competitive advantage based?

Were there any consequences for the leader? If not, it sounds like those above him are just as bad.
