His approach and the manner in which he presented the information is what I have an issue with..
Have you heard of manufacturer recalls??? It happens. Manufactures recall various things by the millions due to them having flaws..
Security issues are patched quite often as they are found or based on how vulnerable they are.
I installed a https plugin on my site and had to disable it as it was conflicting with some other plugins.. another reason being hackers have bots that seek out and find https sites, if you are running https means you have something worth securing or stealing.
The only sensable advise would be to insist that users chose passwords unrelated to their email/banking passwords etc so in the even a hack does happen your password won't be compromised.
This is the most ignorant thing I have seen on the internet all day. When yuh a mek excuse yuh guh hawd.
Are you really saying that there are bots out there that specifically seek out and try to break a 128-bit encryption key? Wouldn't it be easier if that bot seeks out an unencrypted connection instead?
If you cant properly implement site-wide HTTPS on your site due to legacy code support say so, don't go making up stupid excuses. Your website would not be the first that faced the problem of security vs. an old code-base. In fact, the owners of Reddit say the cant use HTTPS because of that same reason.
