I have concerns about this, if this is the break liquid, and it just go out if someone opens the cap, my breaks won't work, right? Such an important thing, and so easy to hack?
The rubber cap merely keeps the end of the bleeder screw from getting dirty. Removing the rubber cap will not allow brake fluid to escape. You must loosen the bleeder screw before brake fluid will escape. The bleeder screw is used to remove air from the brake line, as described in the following thread.
