Hey, I’m with you - I think social media needs to die specifically for this reason. I’m reminded of the term “snake oil” - it’s like the dawn of newspapers again.
Much as I want to rip on vercel, its clear that ai is going to lead to mass security breaches. The attack surface is so large, and ai agents are working around the clock. This is a new normal. Open source software is going to change, companies wont be running random repos off github anymore

The method of compromise was likely used to hit multiple companies other than Vercel. https://x.com/theo/status/2045870216555499636 To be fair journalists often do this too, eg.
