Sometimes there's just not more than 10-15min of content that even a (significant) niche audience would find interesting. There's also only so much time in a day / week to produce. The machine demands novelty.

Can you name the names of SOC auditors that are rubber stamping? Or point me to some public critiques within the industry?

Citation needed. This is not my experience at all, after participating in such efforts at three different companies.

Hasn't Deel been run out of business though? IME SOC2 is still quite involved for any company, especially smaller ones without specialized security personnel.

How is this possible when StarCraft tournaments are dominated by the young? Is it lower APM and therefore less RSI? A more niche market?

It would suck to pay more based on bad or poorly understood data. Especially since I doubt they'll willingly give refunds if their foundational data is proven to be problematic.

What makes me crazy is these big houses aren't even that nice. They don't have significantly more rooms. It's all just stretched out to maximize sq ft for minimal costs. Sometimes with so many cut corners they're unsafe.
