This looked great until I saw that list. It feels, to me, as if all of these companies are scared of the risk. The risk that decades of tech debt and shitty products sold at a premium built on other people's work will now come back to reverse brand fuck them.

I've worked for one of these companies and it was built on OSS and they contribute absolutely nothing back. They just take. And they've literally built a product of duct tape and band aids out of OSS that they charge a premium for.

What a joke. This week keeps getting more bizarre by the hour.

Which one

Z.

Total dumpster fire of a company. They acquired a company called Edgewise and it was so bad that after a number of P0 outages in customer networks they pulled it from the market. I was there less than 6 months after constantly arguing with leadership about how the product was not production worthy. They pulled it about 3 months after I left.

But while I was there I saw just horrid things within ZPA and ZIA (their core products at the time). And with that so many GPL violations, which seems to be the norm within the security market, anyway.
