I agree with this. I'm kind of ashamed to say I agree with this because I am not sure it's going to be effective. And I want to expand my circle of empathy, to consider these folks as fellow technologists just trying to make something work. Nobody gets security perfect on the first try. We shouldn't be mean about failure.

But there's failure and then there's dangerous negligence. The absolute abdication of basic critical thinking throughout the industry is honestly _shocking_ right now.
