    Aren’t UUIDs designed to prevent collisions, rather than be cryptographycally secure? Not that it’s doing a great job here :D

    Edit: Nvm, that was guid.

      GUID and UUID are two names of the same thing. One is Globally Unique and one is Universally Unique. I think they mean not cryptographically secure as in not truly random if it’s generating duplicates.
