New comment by technion in "GoDaddy injecting JavaScript into websites and how to stop it"

The vast majority of Wordpress deployed in the world (and there's a lot more of it in general than we tend to see in the high tech community) exists on a WHM server, which basically deploys an Apache vhost for every site.

There's a thing called Cloudlinux, which is an additional licensed feature that provides resource fencing, but its a lot less capable than advertised ime.

Moreover, many end users rush to chmod 777 their installation because there's a lot of guides out there telling them to do so. There are also highly rated Wordpress plugins that do this silently because developers read those guides.
