What is the solution? More security education for general SWEs? It seems like whatever team worked on this feature never considered any security perspectives.

Make all software which isn't released as open source liable for the cost of security breaches?

There is a reason that in construction, the architect and the structural engineer are separate roles. From what I've seen in software dev, it cannot be considered engineering until a similar division is normalized, mandated and legally required. It's easy to shove things into production, too easy.

Not sure why you were downmodded, this would be a great idea.

Still waiting for these guys to update their MacOS app, we use it in our company and it's so bad that our own team uses Slack.

Not to mention it's an Intel only binary, what's the point of using these dreadful electron cross-platform apps if they can't even be built as universal binaries.
