I concur. Not to mention, this code wouldn't pass the automatic static analysis we use for all commits to our repository, so it literally would never come up as is. We turn on "war…

For some reason that makes it way worse in my book. It isn't some scumbags running a sketchy website you were tricked into clicking on - it's the very people you've entrusted to gi…
