You know you're in a bad spot when you start arguing that a website has as much potential for bad results as a weapons system.
by definition it's not true, and any sequence of thoughts that lead you to that conclusion are wrong, period.
Goes down yes, but what about a data breach? What if, for example, the location of a woman is mistakenly exposed to a abusive partner?
In my view the distinction between a senior software engineer and not is the ability to see how both human and software systems interact and find failure modes that others may miss.
