In reply to Ben Lobaugh (blobaugh).

@Ben Lobaugh - In this instance I mean giving people that are resistant to using JetPack, due to the reasons given above, a few easy ways to mitigate those specific issues.

For example I would suggest the JetPack team write articles which show advanced users which hooks they should use and how to use them to meet their concerns in this instance.

You can also point them at current suitable plugins, or write a new one which deals specifically with their concerns.

It makes sense to try keep as many advanced WP users onboard with BruteProtect. That way they can continue to evangelise for BruteProtect within the WP Community.

The JetPack team can help that happen by listening to their concerns and offering suitable solutions that meet their needs but at the same time don't damage the main objectives for BruteProtect with the "the vast, vast majority of WordPresses in the world".

If they don't do that, it is highly likely IMHO that many advanced WP users will continue to evangelise against the inclusion of BruteProtect only within JetPack.
