Obviously we're diverging from the original thread here but it's a good launching point.

There's a big difference between giving your coders access to the source code and access to the server. Furthermore, as the owner of your game, your source code and changes made to it should not be a black box. If you decide to take on more people to help you with your game, then I'd argue it's incumbent on you for the sake of the game and its players to do it in a responsible way. Anything less and you should be willing to admit the mistake was yours when your actions lead to unfavorable consequences.
