By that argument CDNs shouldn't exist, since the government could theoretically compel them to inject code into the sites they serve.

- stephenr 11y agoThe correct analogy would be "by that argument, everyone should think very carefully about the pros and cons of using a CDN to serve part/all of their website". Which.... is true anyway, regardless of the potential for government-enforced data collection.
- rsynnott 11y agoIf you have a site where this would be a significant worry for you, then yes, you absolutely shouldn't be using a CDN (or, at least, should only be using it in limited ways; images are probably safe); the CDN provider or anyone who can control it can do you a lot of damage.
