This Is Not News.

I has happened numerous times before in cases where there were security issues. In fact I would go so far as to say it has happened with nearly every single blockchain including Bitcoin.

Agree or disagree with this particular soft fork,but the idea of code getting updated without public discussion is a part of reality. Transparency is good but everything being public to everyone all the time just does not work in this world.

No, it wasn't a discovered a security risk.

I get what you are saying. Again it isn't about Tron or Justin.

I accept the debate over whether this was a security risk

My point is that

witnesses can and will change the code and execute it without having a single public conversation

has happened before, will happen again, happens on every blockchain and literally every piece of not-trivial software ever when doing so is considered necessary for security, and is not news.
