Even IT people don't give a shit about security until it's way too late. Source: getting out of a job where the median age of a server is around 3-4 years old with no updates and runtimes hard installed outside repositories.

I think this is just kind of a side effect of capitalism.

If it's costing them in the short term, and the results aren't evident or won't be seen until the long term, they almost always won't do it.

Definitely. You see it across all aspects of life: basic misunderstanding of risk everywhere.
