In their defense, the software industry is a complete joke in terms of quality control. I hope that this and the spate of ransomware will wake the industry up to realize we need new processes, languages and tooling to make software provably correct. It's clear we can't use our existing languages and tooling to make high quality software. Realistically though, that's not going to happen. The smart move is to eliminate as much software from your life as possible. It's only going to get worse as decades of laziness catches up to us.
