I wish I was a billion dollar company who gets away with stuff like this. Just generally break people's systems, add spyware, lie to users, treat them like shit.

All while making even more money and my stocks keep on going up, because AI, Ai, Ai...

Everyone in IT wants to be ahead of the curve but we wind up being reactionary because if it ain't broke don't fix it...but it will break if we don't do this...is it broken now...no but it will be...so it's not broken we are good to go.

Wow. Obviously that’s a bonkers approach, but not at all unsurprising. A large part of my job is actually getting people off their ass to address stuff before the product breaks, and we lose revenue.

I'm on top of things when I have the time to be informed at work. I'm not doing all research after hours and might not always have time for it at work, so sometimes we too are rather reactionary.
