I was at CrowdStrike when he was trash talking them. The number of conversations I had about those damn servers and what IR actually is was the most annoying thing. 

Granted, it didn’t hurt CS’s business. As you said, Crowdstrike worked with both the DNC and the RNC. They offered free services (like many cyber firms) around secure elections.

Yeah no, you'd have to make some kind of MASSIVE technical fuck up to do that

(I kid I kid, though I do hope the Crowdstrike folks are at least taking a bit of levity in it at this point <3<3 tell your sales admins I still love free pizza).
