>About the same as I feel about 95% of software running on the internet being copied from StackOverflow. Rather Meh. I would worry if the engineers at Boeing did it, but a bunch of crappy javascript apps running on the web? No

This is exactly the type of attitude that leads to the proliferation of vulnerabilities on the web.

"It's not like we're using it to fly planes, so who cares if we're not checking every SQL statement for injection vulnerability"

Then the code gets used on some ecommerce site, the site inevitably gets hacked, and customers' PII gets leaked.
