 * Hello, we have released a new plugin version that should fix this issue. We have
   swapped the logic around, so the values are only compared if options are updated
   relevant to the Patchstack plugin.

 * Hello,
 * The files that were detected with your script are part of a “polyfill”. The purpose
   of a polyfill is to provide backwards compatibility to older PHP versions which
   is why it is referencing to functions that may no longer be supported. It does
   not actually call these functions on newer PHP versions and should not be a cause
   of concern.

 * Hi Robert
 * We are sorry to hear that Patchstack was not what you were looking for.
 * The free version of Patchstack plugin is only doing vulnerability monitoring.
   The monitoring is based on the Patchstack Vulnerability Database, which is the
   leading vulnerability database in the WordPress ecosystem. If any of the core,
   theme or plugin versions did not match against the vulnerabilities listed in 
   our database, then your WordPress website does not have known vulnerabilities.
   You can also see the database here: [https://patchstack.com/database/](https://patchstack.com/database/)
 * The protection features such as virtual patching, community IP blocklisting, 
   advanced hardening and other protection modules are paid features. This is also
   clearly communicated on the plugin description and on our website.
 * Your review seems to criticize the paid features, which at the same time you 
   did not even try.
 * If you’re interested to try them out, please reach out to us on our support, 
   so we could set up an extended trial for you so you can understand what our other
   users and customers have experienced (and why they have left us the positive 
   reviews you see here).
 * Sincerely,
   Patchstack Team

 * Hello, could you please explain what you mean or if there is something you don’t
   understand about this plugin? Its primary purpose is to show if you have any 
   vulnerable plugins or themes on your site, not what you describe as “hack plugin”.
