      I dunno, I’ve been in a few meetings where people with deep pockets make critical infrastructure decisions based on extremely limited information. Trusting “them” to have a valid metric is a rookie mistake.

        The older you get you realize more and more that the people making the decisions are totally clueless.
        …Until you become one of the decision makers.

          Yep.

          At my first job I was in charge of implementing new software (definitely not in my job description - I was basically a secretary). I was discussing security concerns with the head honchos and they interrupted me and dismissed my concerns because they “only hire honest people.”

          They gave everyone admin permissions.
