I often get laughed at when I say we should backup every tools/repositories/packages through a proxy and use only that in our internal processes. I also get scolded at making use our Dockerfiles only calls scripts a developer can use on his own machine or any other container manager once the "too good to be free" tech of the decade goes full Oracle on us.
Then everyone panics when a critical build stops working because some apt repository of some decades old distros is unplugged or some shell script piped directly to bash goes dark (or someone with a bit of security common sense rightfully has a panic attack) and we have to salvage it using some ex-employees backup images.
This is also why I just don't say I do devops because it just gets to a point where the "devops guys" are just the people you give the dirty jobs nobody wanna do.
