Ok, this might come across as being sarcastic, but I am being 100% genuine here.
My question is: how do you miss this? Again, not trying to piss anyone off, but seriously asking a question hoping you might provide some insight for a product manager. Would it be better if you: - received an email with a "read this first"? - were forced to play in a sandbox and simulate worst case scenarios? - were allowed to pay for immediate whitelisting? I am just curious on this. I know these are delicate questions, but would love any feedback.
