   I have a question.

   Why is it always Elementor sites that get hacked?

   Fucking shit garbage.

     @alda Honest question: Is it Elementor or admins that are so inexperienced that they use Elementor that cause the issues?

     @chris they seem to have had a code injection vulnerability late last year and all the agency bros disable automatic updates.

     This has resulted in tens of thousands of casino spam pages per site and bans from Google Ads, with no way to appeal.

     On several sites.

     Fun times.
