I meant to write this sooner but better late than never (some of us have demanding day jobs)
I have spent the last decade working in infosec. Writing secure applications involves a skillset that is not being taught anywhere these days. Also its my belief that web applications are inherently insecure because of the fact that so many of them run code client side. That is one of the biggest reasons why I do not like the way many websites work and why I hate all this fancy HTML5 and CSS3 BS.
But yes, another site that is seriously lacking in OpsSec is Furaffinity.net. Thanks to Dragoneer's stupidity or utter carelessness, some of my art, and other information about me is in the dark web. It appears unauthorized access was obtained to a backup of their server at some point during 2018: the backup in question being quite old, dating to when I still had an account on FA.
Of course you cannot discuss this with furries. The usual strong reactions come out to play, and I really don't care for that.
