For example, what kind of moron would put a secret you mustn't learn right next to data you can choose? A good solution wouldn't care, but surely a bad solution where that would cause a problem would never encounter real world scenarios where.... oh right HTTP Cookies Good solutions won't lose security from repeating transactions, but while accidents might cause one or two repetitions surely no real world systems would need to withstand millions of... oh yeah, Javascript loops exist | ||
