I don't buy it. 70% of the CMPs being "misconfigured" tells us that even if these panels were broken by design, the companies using them must all conveniently not notice this. Strange, given that even a small risk of large fines or prolonged legal process with public entities would warrant someone paying at least a moment of attention to this. I suspect they are, and the choice of leaving things misconfigured is deliberate.

FWIW, this was a problem long before LLMs were a thing, and it didn't get worse with LLMs. If anything, I'd expect LLMs to get it right by default, because ones ~everyone is using are all trained straight, they won't just silently read between the lines and write code/configs to facilitate one's illegal business model.
