• Why is it important to keep the frontend up to date on dependencies if your backend is secure?

  I worked at Facebook, where we communicate with each other using an internal version of Facebook. Once, our frontend security engineer (author of https://escape.alf.nu) wrote a clickbait story which ended with “… (read more)”, like most long Facebook stories did at the time.
