  Wow… just wow… (applicable German word of the day: "warmsanieren". Translates to 'renovating by setting fire to it', street slang, occasionally but not always used to imply insurance fraud too.)

    Seconding... WOW JUST WOW. How can this not receive more attention here? (everyone had "root" to production with all user data, without any approach to limit that if they wanted, nothing what could be called staging/dev envs, employees installed spyware regularly only caught by incidents and self-reporting, and they never made an effort to buy licenses for the software used). Sorry, but in most other business except tech, that's just fraud on many levels? Sounds like a massively failed company, making one wonder how could this be running so well for so long? And puts another question mark on what the thousands of employees had been doing.. and also on all the "we were such a nice community posts"? Not? Someone tell me this is business as usual?

  In case anyone else is having trouble keeping up, this is referencing the Mudge report.
