    Reminds me of the time that I took down the corporate website by translating the entire website into German. I’d been asked to do this but I hadn’t realized that the auto translation Plug-In actually rewrote code into German, I thought it was just going to alter the HTML with JavaScript at runtime, but nope. It actually edited the files.

    It also translated the password into German which was fun because it was just random characters so I have no idea what it translated into.

      Same happened with people using the Cloud To Butt extension which replaced every ‘cloud’ with ‘butt’ even for codes. Hilarity ensued.

        I do have that extension installed. Never been bit so far. I don’t copy and paste anymore than a couple of lines at a time.
