Comment why do you think "everyone" will outsource? (Score 1) 902
I know outsourcing cuts costs, but not everyone really gives a crap about India and China to send all of their code to India and China and have it stolen or mimiced so they can put themselves out of business.
Now maybe some big companies see it as a cool trend to cut some costs but they also see that whatever their company is made from, which in this case is code, can easily "virtually" be replaced by any cheap knock off. It's not like you're exporting machines, you're exporting ideas that are practically free to reproduce. It's not like you have to buy materials and have a huge infrastructure.
If you're silly enough to send your entire site to some guy in India or China, trust, you just sent your entire company overseas.
