I'm baffled how often I see an someone throw this sort of craziness - "go fetch this thing from some random third party" - into very important places, such as the startup procedures of a container. It's something I see in a culture of the two person startup just trying to get something out the door. It's definitely "technical debt", and frequently, it won't get removed. Thus, you try to scale up to meet load, and all these new instances go time out on the same external resource that's randomly having problems... boom! At the worst possible time. Never mind the potential huge security gaps.
But the specific _tools_ aren't the issue here. It's the culture of "ship something now we'll deal with fallout later". A lot of people start using Docker and won't ever look at the Dockerfile, or, will add a Maven dependency and won't even check licenses or security updates for _any_ of the transient dependencies.
Cloud technologies and containerization make everyone just think "we can do things so fast now" and never, ever pay attention to details that can come back to bite you.
On the flip side, it's a good time to be in cybersecurity; because this cultural problem will never, ever, get solved. :)
