Is there any reason to assume open source is a prerequisite for effective altruism?

Open source doesn’t necessarily imply good for humanity, for example distributing open source designs for nukes would probably be a net negative.

And even if it did, effective altruists wouldn’t need to prioritize the benefit provided by openness over all other possibilities.

I don't think relying on a proprietary license to make sure enemies can't get AI for nukes is a sane security model. Something else needs to give.
