The organization offered a "widget" for display on the site, which the hosts suspect is a method to inject JavaScript or track click-through data. They decide to display a static image of the award instead of using the provided code to maintain server security.

Inspired by this, they jokingly propose a "Dvorak Curry Podcast Boot Camp" that would charge $15,000 to teach students how to write newsletters and take checks. The segment touches on the intense 16-hour workdays required by top-tier Silicon Valley boot camps.

The issue is linked to a breakdown in how the OS handles JavaScript and shared web credentials. A parallel is drawn to a recent incident where a developer pulled his modules from a shared library (NPM/GitHub), causing widespread failures in "copy-paste" millennial coding architectures that rely on microservices rather than local resources.

The hosts argue that the original name provided a clear safety directive for the public. They also note that modern web technologies like JavaScript often create significant barriers for screen readers, undermining actual digital equality for the blind.

The dating site OkCupid participated in the protest by displaying a message to Firefox users.
