I want to use python in my product because I like and familiar with python for many years, but I won't let the customer to read and modify my code. So the best way is to encrypt my module .py to .pye.
They scheme you describe only provides a false sense of security. That would be very bad. The only ways to protect your code are a) legally, which is the main one, and b) by not giving it to anyone (and making them access things by a remote interface). A very strong -1 from me. Do not provide wrong-headed, insecure features like this. Mike
