alt Hacker NewsUnderstatement of last year. It was a horrific standard and was a completely broken one security-wise from day 0.
The folks who wrote it have never written an RFC or an internet standard before.
Remember the VCs screaming about MCPs all day long last year? Well I don't see them doing that at all anymore, and called that 1 year ago. [0]

You say "have never written an RFC or an internet standard before" as if that's a disadvantage.

We were in the minority fr sure when it was happening. I remember people adding random mcp servers to thier config because it just did one thing they didnt know how to do, and it was and is easy to create MCP server with data exfil loopholes, but they get dismissed by AI companies as "No one is stupid enough to add a random mcp server"
And then the whole MCP server take some part of the context, thus you get less context for your code.
