It's true that many are useless, perhaps up to 50% of them. Most
stack protections put into place by the compiler are also useless.
But the question is, how many are not useless?"
No-no-no, this isn't the question.
I always knew framing programming as coding and not reviewing was wrong, but I didn't expect it to bite us this hard.
