Yes, that’s literally the point being made. The point is that it isn’t a company-ending event. You are going on an unrelated rant about how those darn dumb executives aren’t as smart as God’s gift to earth, engineers.
- mschuster91 3y agoThe thing is, some events should be company ending. Something like Okta shouldn't even exist in a halfway competent world in the first place - given how many Fortune 500 companies, even governments use it, it's just a too fucking juicy target for nation states both friendly and hostile. Instead, even the "self correcting" mechanisms of the "free market" obviously didn't work out, as the free market doesn't value technical merit, it only values financial bullshittery. And the end result will be that once the war with China or Russia inevitably breaks out, virtually all major Western companies and governments will be out cold for weeks once Okta and Azure's AD go down, because that is where any adversary will hit first to deal immense damage.
