You are absolutely correct, and corporate America is not going to do that until/unless they start to see corporations actually losing money vs. competitors if they do not. Right now, it is essentially just "well that was embarrasing", not "I might lose my job as CEO because this happened".
In other words, it will have to get worse before it gets better.
- phillipcarter 6y agoYep, that about nails it. Your OPEX for closing everything up and running it all yourself is pretty high. Undoubtedly using "the cloud" and lots of OSS stuff (that your company probably doesn't fund or contribute to either) is great for business. Unless the company's pocketbook is affected more and/or some folks at the top lose their jobs over it, I don't see anything changing.
- g_p 6y agoAbsolutely. Solarwinds is a great example that if you can become important enough, and in with the bricks, the rats won't flee the sinking ship, even as the deck goes below the waterline. If investors lost confidence in a company, and sold their shares (impacting the share price), could this create a sufficient paper-based loss for other investors to pursue the senior officers of the company? I think you're right though - unless it is something that makes the CEO lose their job, or go to prison, it is going to be hard to get anyone to take on any (even marginal) increase in the cost of delivering the product.
