similar example - Princess Diana car accident - the car was kept away from the manufacturer - the manufacturer was denied access - this suggested that the car had been secretly modified and this fact was being kept hidden.Have there been cases of people being kept from looking at a computer program,?
Your theory about Princess Diana's car is just a stupid conspiracy theory. Not worth exploring.
However, yes, as a contract QA supervisor, I requested that the programmers on one contract document the changes they made to the programs and their systems manager refused to do that. I was required to interview one of the programmers, an Indian who have a very hard to understand accent. He clipped the ends of his words off so that I understood 50% of what he said at best. I complained but it did no good.
The QA team did as good a job of testing with the information they had, but when the changes when into production it failed.
I left the company and my contract on an excuse as I realized the company was going to have problems if it did not require the programmers to document their changes so that the QA team could do an adequate job. My excuse was that I wanted to take my daughter to Europe on a 30 day vacation when she graduated from high school. I trained my replacement, a poor guy who commuted 100 miles to work each day (each way) and didn't realize what he was getting into. I learned when I returned that he had been fired.
If the programming staff reviews the code with a thorough walk-through programs cannot be doctored. There are utilities that show the code that has been changed so it sticks out like a sore thumb. Impossible to fake.
