Do you think about security while making your products? 🔑

I picked "Maker Mindset" topic on purpose :) I carefully review most of the products that I like and comment on here for vulnerabilities or security flaws and the result is not good. Yesterday I discovered a big problem in one of the products for example allowing attackers to exploit it. (I have notified the makers of course) So my question is - as a maker - do you think about security at all when you design and implement your idea? Is this one of your checkpoint items as good UX, nice design, value, etc?

Do you find auto-play videos inside the hunts distracting?

I see a trend PH to display a video as a the first thing to see when you look at the hunt details. I found it irritating to watch someone explain to me what their product is about without asking me if I want to watch it :) Some of those people are very scary too (no offence). Do you also find auto-play videos inside the hunts distracting? What could you propose to fix that (comments are welcome).
