    Nothing happens if you fuck up your proxy, but if you develop an app that gets very popular and don’t care about safety, so hackers are able to take control over your whole Server they can do a lot of damage. If you develop software for critical infrastructure it can actually cost human lives if you fuck up your security systems.
