Hence why I specifically said "public website". Intranets and other IP whitelisted resources are clearly a different topic entirely. Sites only intended for 50 administrators but are not hidden behind a firewall make me nervous for a whole other set of reasons but I accept that's got to happen sometimes (but even there, most of the best / developer friendly CRUD platforms these days aren't CGI so there is little reason to use CGI even for that specific use case).
