Wiz does many things. VPN, by any definition, is not one of them.

Where do you see Wiz in the above list of products in the post I'm responding to?

In any case, as for wiz..., if companies want to stuff their secrets into a proprietary product that is controlled by intelligence officers of a hostile (as in a lack of respect for international law) foreign country, I don't care. I know I would not.

This thread is talking about Wiz. The comment you responded to was about the fact that security company founders often have intelligence community backgrounds and/or come from adversary states (from a US/European perspective.) It had nothing to do with VPN.

I can chose to what part of a comment I'll respond to. I responded to list of companies providing "VPN" software. Fortinet, paloalto/globalprotect, checkpoint,...

That is a tiny part of what those companies do and was mentioned nowhere in that post.

You’re responding to something that isn’t there.

It's the only product I'm sometimes required to come in contact with from these companies. And also the only product of theirs that I inspected in any detail in Ghidra. And the only product of theirs that I have to defend my network against.

So I'm only interested in that aspect of their products. For everything else, all these security companies and their customers can devour each other, for all I care.
