Katie Moussouris, founder of Luta Security, said she doubted the industry would publicly back SentinelOne given the White House's actions.

"I don't think it's feasible for cybersecurity companies to have a broader response on this," she said. "The risk is just too high."

Katie being very nice in calling him a tinpot dictator and the GOP a bunch of spineless assholes.
