The Docker host can see everything in the container. The customer
controls the Docker host. Therefore the customer can see everything in
the container. Likewise the VirtualBox host once the encrypted VM is
unlocked. Likewise every other deployment where the customer controls
the deployment target.

Solution: If you don't want your customers to see the source code
then don't ship source code.
