It's been a very hard year
I truly empathize with the pain conveyed in this article, and I understand why, at times, it is worth going against the grain.

I get hundreds of thousands of requests for things like .env, .aws, and all the different .php paths that could potentially signal a misconfigured Wordpress instance. These people are the real baddies."
