> Closed source software won't receive any reports

Not from the automated repo scanners, but bug bounty programs can generate a lot of reports in my experience. AI tools are becoming a problem there, too, because amateurs are drawn to the bounties and will submit anything the AI hallucinates.

Closed source companies can (and should!) also run their own security audits rather than passively waiting for volunteers to spend their tokens on it.
