@OpenComputeDesign It has been done before. Look for Crypto-Heaters.

Some of them are really outdated nowadays as well 😜

@RyunoKi …and browser extensions and game mods. Heck, whatever allows to regain access to an account via mail basically.

No 2FA on your Google Dev account? Too bad 🙃

@Johann150 yes, that's true. It made it into ECMAScript 5.1

Now if you've for _some_ weird reason a system that requries some _older_ build target you get a polyfill.

That was provided by packages like this and should be helluvEOL nowadays. There are better suited and highly automated polyfills.

Anyway, the issue is very real. This happened before and will happen again.

It's also the very same for most language depending package managers out there and this is why version pinning is a thing.
