> Also - why would a blog be threatened by XSS? A blog is a collection of static HTML files and I assume the creator would be using a composer or just a text editor + browser to add and edit pages. Why would anyone log into a blog?

Perhaps you've never heard of WordPress [0], the 17-year-old blogging software used by ~60 million web sites as of 2012 [1] and that is, today, "the platform of choice for over 35% of all sites across the web" [2]?

I have experience using Wordpress; in sixth grade I tried out the Wordpress editor and felt writing HTML was easier. I admit it's popular with less-savvy users and with companies with money to burn, but it seems unprofessional to use Wordpress for anything you can write by hand. I don't think anyone would be using blogging software if they didn't have their own domain.
