No I did not mis-represent docker, used it since version 0.96 and after 1.0. Also commented, when under the new investment it tried to re-invent the wheels by moving away from lxc base to re-write its own libcontainer and lost on the development of unprivileged containers which landed in lxc 1.0. Since than it’s always been a security nightmare.

Docker although inferior and less secure than LXC/LXD became popular due to marketing driven by VC money, not on technical merits.

Check the old thread discussing the security issue with docker not supporting unprivileged container. [1]
