I hacked my car
Most development at very large companies happens by hordes of people who call themselves developers but do not care about development and barely understand anything they are doing. Most coding happens by copying and pasting from Stack* and then restarting the application hundreds of times and tinkering with the code mindlessly until it happens to work. Anything besides getting the "happy path" (sic!) to work is a secondary concern.<p>Add to it that most developers from Asia do not really expect or care about privacy and are super quick to drop any quality standards to meet deadlines. And the management that likewise does not value quality besides things that can be easily seen and typically does not tolerate any delays for anything that is not absolutely necessary.<p>I worked for a well known, huge Korean company. When I was there I learned they shipped a mass produced device with a telnet server with a simple default password. This wasn't done for any evil purpose -- the development team decided this would improve their ability to debug any production problems they might face. They were not trusting their own code and were looking for a quick and easy solution to deal with inevitable deluge of support tickets.
