Yeah, but in my book thats "technology done right". No hype, no expensive toys, just the right tech to solve the right problems without getting in your face.

What has this to do with security through obscurity?? WP security is like Whac-A-Mole, you patch one serious issue and two more pop up. It has been like this for years which shows that the developers don't have the correct mindset to
