Why is that an opt-in option? No codebase should ever be willing to create a session id (any db/cache id/key) based on request details. The fact you have to opt in to a very basic security measure is, once again, a joke. Let&#

I'm going to stick my neck out as someone who has refused to even consider Rails over a span of many years, for one simple reason: it permits session fixation. If a client's cookie says "I am session token 'abc123'

Huh? Open Netflix and play any recently added 1080p stream that contains dark scenes. Those scenes are literally unwatchable. I don't mean "not perfect". I mean they look like they were encoded with a 256 color palette. Bitra
