founder here. Algorithm developers get to choose if they want their code open source or closed source. Close source makes black box algorithms.
For open source algorithms nothing stops users form grabbing the code and taking it off the platform - but again thats the point of open source code. The simplicity of not having to start your own servers, download dependencies or maintain the code yourself makes it worth not leaving the platform in most cases.
