'; UPDATE countries SET great = true WHERE name = 'America'; --

More based: '; UPDATE countries SET great = true; --

    We could do name LIKE ‘%AMERICA%’ but that would grab a few extra countries. Course that faction of the political spectrum would be all in favor of “acquiring” more countries anyway.

      Ahem pushes glasses up nose arch, umm ackshually you would need to use ILIKE if you’re feeding in America in all caps unless you have a custom caseless collation set on that column.

        I haven’t used a database that required me to specify case in 15 years, and I’ll be cold dead in the grave before I do it again… only because I assume that’s what they use IN HELL.

          All string comparisons are case insensitive by default? Is that an Oracle thing?

          Postgres absolutely supports case based string diffentiation in data (by default all DB identifiers are case insensitive though which I absolutely appreciate).

            Microsoft SQL Server is most commonly set up as case insensitive in my (limited) experience (it does support case sensitivity too).
