Eh, comment out a route and deploy.

That's all well and good for a tech demo, but things rarely seem to be that simple in systems as big/old as OkCupid. I guess this time, it was.

That's only true if there was nothing internally relying on it.

Whitelist internals and deploy?

It may be impressively fast or unimpressively simple. We won't know for sure.

[_asummers]

Absolutely. But imagine e.g. a mobile app that uses that API. That's a harder change to propagate. That's pure speculation though, as you said. We have no idea.

edge route blocking doesn't take a deploy

Comment out and redeploy, fixing the other features is a lot less urgent issue.
