BigTech is far more competent than a Telco though.

[red-iron-pine]

having worked and consulted at both... debatable.

level competency is higher at BigTech but laziness, vanity, selfishness, ego, and learned-helplessness happens plenty too.

e.g. for all of the BigTech brilliance plenty of them fall for mildly complex phishing efforts or bribes, etc.
