Agreed - in fact, if you already use browser plugins like
Netcraft, you're exercising that principle. As you point out, the
right technology has to be in place, if a resource like
datalossdb is to be converted into a practical risk mitigation
tool for the average user (or their app or browser).
The non-technical risk mitigation comes into play too: for
instance, if I launch a service based on an app which includes a
built-in check against datalossdb, do I perhaps satisfy some
regulatory requirement or make my business insurer feel more
comfortable...?
