And then the IT department announced that they are finally replacing our obscure, archaic “VPN solution”. I asked, “you are building the new solution on top off WireGuard, right? 😊”
IT: … … 😊

They ended up BUYING ANOTHER “VPN SOLUTION” INSTEAD 😭
No kidding. In our case, their hands are even more tied, since we are required by law to outsource it to the cheapest possible provider. I’m just disappointed that my country and agency are so poorly informed on how much cheaper and self reliant using open source solutions such as WireGuard and Linux would be.

That’s why they pay them the big bucks.
yeah. those usually market themselves to clueless management instead of real it people.
we don’t have the decision power nor the gullibility for that shady garbage.
