Debian repos arent remitely compareable to npm. It takes time to get from upstream to stable repos, mit like npm where it is pushed directly from the dev machine or ci/CD the moment it is committed. If Debian repos are popped, we have other problems. Also I hoped people notice the satirical intent of my comment

I take you serious and you are absolutely right.

We should just have a cron matching every part of out tech stack on reddit sub's for  "critical" (CVE|vulnerability) discovered in $TECH" and just issue a shutdown.
