If you think something sucks to the extent that it's actively harming the world and you want it to go away, leaving comments to that effect is not the way. I know, because I bear the psychic scars of a million online flamewars, dating all the way back to 300 baud dualup modems and BBSes. I've been doing this a very long time. I've seen what works, and what doesn't. If you're giving developers terrible advice on, for instance, how to write secure code, with an audience the size of yours, you have transcended 'online flamewar'. It's not a game anymore. At some point, at some level of influence, you actually take on some kind of responsibility to be right, and when you're wrong, you should be called on it in no uncertain terms.
