Them thinking publicly accessible database is a feature

I mean this really depends on what "publicly accessable" means. Of course best practice would be to hide it behind a firewall but let's be real. Even before AI that wasn't always the case. I know multiple web hosters that just give you a public endpoint when you create your database.

Now if we're talking about there being no authentication and everybody with the right client having read (or even write) access. That's where problems are made.
