What a malicious thing to do. Computer users deserve to be able to inspect the code running on their machines.

Of course you can inspect it. Understanding it, however...
The user already doesn't have the source. Obfuscating the binary is just hostile.
No, that's my point.

You can inspect the code running on your machine. The machine code.

At what level should one expect it's user to understand the code running on one's machine? If I have you the source to my application in brainfuck, would that suffice?
