thebestaquaman@lemmy.world 12 hours agoTo be fair I would assume that it’s better to trigger something like this during a security review when people are actively “online” and focused on security risks than at some other time.

Absolutely and it helped prove why they needed to do this security review to begin with as well as will teach them the nature of how this user script worked so they can put up guardrails for this specific type of attack. An unfortunate event but as long as they are using it to learn from and strengthen their security, overall it’s a good thing.
