That is the exact opposite of my experience. Of all the coworkers and friends I’ve ever had who worked in cybersecurity, one was a bootlicker, while all of the rest were at least three of transfem, furry, weeb, and anarchist.
Edit: Ok, one of the transfem furry anarchists was a bootlicker, but only in the kink scene, not her politics.
Nah, it’s usually some wild eyed wacko high on their own bloated sense of self importance, demanding all ICMP be blocked network wide; that does get the hate flowing.
ICMP gets blocked because it’s a violation of a lot of legal and contractual requirements to allow it on a network.
my company just signed a contract, and this was a requirement of the contract for us to do the work. So now we block it. It’s inconvenient, but we need to make money.
a lot of IT contractual obligations are horribly out of date technologically, but they are a legal liabilty so they have to be enacted. Our contract also required us to not use Windows XP explicitly, this is because a lot of place still do in a limited capacity like for controllers.
cybersecurity people are bootlickers

People who work in cybersecurity, irrespective of their overt freakery, are overwhelmingly wannabe cops.
Lmao, let the hate flow through you. Did you get reprimanded for executing ransomware after downloading porn?

Can’t argue with that, though that sounds more like a corporate zombie 🥲
