Well that's modern day security for you. These security modules are usually imported as modules to web apps and sites. Don't blame Trump, security is a huge undertaking. If people had to write their security from scratch it would take all their time and money, scrap most of it and retry until they get it right.

I do use linux oses to do my programming, but like most, you get Windows with your machine when you buy it and just use a VM for linux.
Using modules has pros and cons. Quick to market and simplified reasoning in lieu of control and orthogonality. A seasoned programmer can reduce complexity thereby increasing speed when using more modern approaches. I have taken 2 million lines of code and built better software in 2000 lines.
Here is an example: Create-React-App puts over 1 million files onto your computer just to bootstrap an app. Could be expressed in one file about 100k.
When Windows 11 came out, I went from having 600 megs free on disk to 10 megs. They play games. Chrome cache can only free 50 megs but if I re-install I get 300 megs. all = targeted Individual.
