This is a horrible way to look at this because it discourages future disclosures. If anything, this disclosure indicates this company is trustworthy and learns from their mistakes with honest disclosures when things go wrong. The type of behavior we all wish every vendor had.

Unfortunately I can verify this is real. This is now required for people who use google voice - you will get a pop up saying it's required for calling and messaging

The issue here is that cyber security folks seem to forget that fundamentally security is insurance. The goal is to pay the least youb can to prevent issues.

The number of times I've talked to CSOs or CISOs that want every piece of data in their seim or extremely strict controls is innumerable. If your spend all your budget on tools and data you have no budget for people. Its better to actually understand your risk posture and plan accordingly.

However, thats boring. Just like devs want to use kubernetes for their 5 user site, security folks want the shiniest endpoint protections. Resume driven development and resume driven security are real, and in a world where there is more direct cost and fewer discreet deliverables, its likely felt more on security.

Note - you can completely disable all the AI features in Gitlab. In fact, they're disabled by default unless you explicitly enable them by configuring model integrations. I think its one of the better self hosted options because it had a clear maintenance and path to profitability.

I run my own GitLab on a NUC with no issues.

There are two editions of Gitlab - community edition (completely open source) and enterprise edition (closed source additions). You can run CE completely free. You can actually run EE completely free too, there are just some features disabled

Its Walmart canada (based on the sign in the background) so 99.99 is the MSRP based on Nintendo.ca. that's a little over 70 USD
