It all boils down to:
Guilty until proven innocent or innocent until proven guilty. Same for Mezuzos scandal, same for any of the Kashrus scandals, same with this.
If you're okay using/consuming anything that "everyone uses", you're going with an attitude of innocent until proven guilty and you're going to burn yourself once before each time you define something as guilty/improper.
If you only listen to someone you know is kosher, buy from a Softer you know is Kosher, eat from a company/brand you know is kosher, then you won't burn yourself, and you'll tend to get annoyed by people who burn themselves and go around parading as if they've discovered America, whilst you think "who asked them to go that way in the first place?".
I hope people can make some sense or of my rant.
