Good idea bar one small problem, the "SEVERE unpardonable consequences" part. For one thing, I.T. crimes already recieve higher punishments than murder and rape. Need to increase severe crimes before you increase I.T. yet again. And U.S.A. prisons already contain how many people?
Either you start using that population as a major workforce or your reintroduce capital punishment. Floggings and the death penalty.
In regards to logs, you do realise that logs for access are controlled by somebody? Who may be the person who attacks and penetrates the security system?
FOSS is a "problem" in that it gives people trying to break the software a much easier job. No dissassembling and figuring out how everything works, it's all there in front of you. Doesn't even need to have the F in front of it, commercial software is still available, still need to supply the source in OSS.
