A comment on A Docker footgun led to a vandal deleting NewsBlur's MongoDB database. Parent comment
On a hypervisor, it's much harder for VMs to influence each other.
Linux containers (and docker amongst them) started out as convenient and reasonably performant, and added security later. One patch at a time.
Historically, hypervisors typically started secure and added performance and convenience over time.
(Very simplified. But I used to work for XenSource back in the day.)
