As expected from the "security" experts -- it is all chicken little "Sky is falling" talk and zero demonstrations.
This is why pretty much no one takes it seriously : it used to be that the fancy vulnerabilities came with a demo:
$ ./some-exploit-code
#
some-exploit-code won the argument. No one could argue that it did not matter as anyone who managed to get code executed on a target server got #. These days we just get lots of "OMG! We are all going to get pwned!" handwaving and zero demonstration that can be done in front of execs.
