I get relying on 3rd party libraries, but not hosting them yourself and just hoping that the current host never gets sold/owned/etc? That sounds insane to me...

Sounds like curl | insmod /dev/stdin level insane
- ben509 7y agoSome 3rd party services, though, serve up libraries, e.g. disqus.
- koolba 7y agoAnd those 3rd party libs can dynamically load other files via script tags. The first level does not even have to change for dynamically loaded scripts to change.
- GhostVII 7y agoSounds pretty insane to me too, but I think it is valuable to let people do insane things more securely, as I don't think security concerns are generally a very big deterrent in software development (unfortunately).
- jjeaff 7y agoLots of 3rd party services don't allow you to host your own copy of their library.
