This thread was started to discuss how a contract programmer can protect
himself from getting ripped of by an dishonest person or company not every
little hacker in the world.

It only takes one person with some free time to break your protection

If they had the talent or the free time they would have programmed it
themselves because most of the time it takes longer to backwards engineer a
program than it does to write it from scratch.
