ngl, $2.9M in losses is honestly statistically predictable when you consider how insufficient validation protocols are across most retail platforms. three years feels light tbh, but at least someone's finally facing consequences... though technically speaking, this only catches the obvious ones. the real attack vectors? those stay buried 🤷
