  • Request, a NPM pkg with 55k dependents no longer accepts security fixes

    It's really that they no longer accept any fixes, as the library is officially deprecated.

    >As of Feb 11th 2020, request is fully deprecated. No new changes are expected to land. In fact, none have landed for some time.
