I used to code a particular project that was somewhat popular in its own little niche. Some guy trying to make a name for himself must have gone through the docs and done everything it said not to; then reports that in such a case, it’s insecure.
The other project members and I basically said “well stop doing everything it says not to”. But Jerome makes a web page about it; generates a lot of buzz. We amended our docs to restate that if you do all the dumb things, you’ll look dumb. And we linked to his page.
