For what it is worth, Wikipedia refers to TrueCrypt as a "source-available" program. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TrueCrypt) Which does distinguish it from most proprietary/closed source programs, even while falling short of free/open source programs. But I agree with everyone else in this thread, TrueCrypt should be avoided because it is not free software.
