Where the Fault Belongs

Hackers or developers?
I say both.
For hacking had never been bad
Until public ignorance said so.

It is all the same though,
the endless game of wack-a-mole
between bad code and bad code.

Convenience over security,
speed over quality
Oh no! Windows is updating!
Says the innocent user
guilty only of ignorance.

Leave it on, the clumsy giant says
Oh no, please don't.
The code stays closed, 
The price not so low.
The money flows,
And the fruit hangs low.
