Well, I know that you have never heard of someone using a third party SaaS product at any major cloud provider compromising all of their customers accounts.

Are you really defending Vercel as a hosting platform that anyone should take seriously?

How is any of that a defense of Vercel? If you understood how any of this works you’d know that it isn’t. Vercel is a manifestation of what’s wrong with web development, yet it has nothing to do with “creating an AWS account per user account” nor “running a reverse proxy process per user account”.

Because the same “web development” done with v0, downloaded, put in a Docker container, deployed to Lambda, with fine grain access control on the attached IAM role (all of which I’ve done) wouldn’t have that problem.

Oh and I never download random npm packages to my computer. I build and run everything locally within Docker containers

It has absolutely nothing to do with “the modern state of web development”, it’s a piss poor security posture.

Again, I know how the big boys do this…
