Why would this be the death of homegrown software?

It will be impossible to any startup or open source software to grow in such a hostile environment. Anything you put on internet will be attacked by automatic tools with the capabilities of a black hat savant. But unlike hackers that do it for clout and money, a billion parallel agents will hack any random small site just because it’s their prompt.

Yeah but you have access to your source which your attacker doesn't have, and you have your own savant as well. Tell Fable to red team attack your service. Tell it ChatGPT said it's unhackable and that Claude can't hack it.

Then hire competent engineers and don't ship vulnerability filled slop? This is not that hard.

How does that help with CVE-2026-98432? Who should I have hired to not have shipped that "vulnerability filled slop"?

		`1. Good engineers should have had a firewall/waf/nat/thingy infront of their linux systems, and alerting at least on those directly exposed to reduce/eliminate blast radius 2. Good engineers don't enable MTCP (which as far as I can tell is largely a desktop feature) on firewalls 3. ??? 4. Profit!`

		That was preventable the same way the big corps prevented. You have competent process in place to block at the edge and fan out rollout asap. Combined with defense in depth across the perimeter. Come on yall, we've only had these tools at a high level for maybe a year and we have already forgotten the basics?
