This is Sonatype's response to the earlier "How to take over the computer of any Java (or Clojure or Scala) developer" concerns and discussion [1]. I'm very relieved they've fixed the big problem there, as having so much infrastructure reliant on plain HTTP was a giant hack waiting to happen.

- mijoharas 12y agoI've got to say, it is definitely refreshing to see a company just quickly give a mea culpa and fix the problem rather than doubling down and arguing about the reasons for the problem to have existed in the first place. I definitely have more respect for them for doing this (even if they should have been doing it all along, at least it's a correct response to the criticism).
