Unless the person you're replying to thinks you are personally currently maintaining such equipment, that's a general 'you'.

"And even if there weren't, if you've been thinking of the airgap as a "solution" and not keeping up with patches, ..."

Nobody here is going to say airgap and done, but out in the wild they will certainly deprioritize updates on airgapped equipment.

Well I mean, I said it's a solution. They said it is not a solution, a direct response to what I specifically had said, and followed by directly responding to the rest of my statement. The entire comment seems to be directed at what I said, hinging off my use of "solution".

Perhaps the 'you' was intended to be generalized. I interpreted as directed at me, since the entirety of the comment is directed at me. Maybe I'm mistaken.

The joys of trying to have meaningful conversations over text.
