I appreciate the perspective. If you're telling me I worked there at literally the worst possible time frame, I'd believe it. I may have my experience skewed through the perspectiv…

Oh god don't remind me about Trace. I had to deal with the Controller side of that and it was a damn nightmare. He basically dictated that you couldn't use any kind or repo+deploym…

> Nick was hired out of his job at Amazon because he was supposed to be the AWS expert. This always cracked me up. From what I can tell, he was a mid level dev on the Alexa web api…

I've since heard that the repo has been taken down and all the keys rotated, but just kinda makes you wonder how many APs and switches and cloud keys, etc are still out there using…

Hoo boy, this is gonna be a fun one. For reference, I spent a year (mid-2018 to mid-2019) running the UniFi Network team and worked with Nick during that time. > * Why was it so ea…

> This man was a senior developer Dude, let's not be generous. Could he write code? Yes. But this is a guy who wrote everything in Node, but absolutely _refused_ to use any existin…

I mean, I didn't necessarily agree with all of his methods or reasonings on everything, but I've come to realize a lot of times his hands were just as tied as ours. And the draconi…

Heh... no. I quit two years ago, well before all this happened. I have ideas about who this "Adam" is, and I also have some suspicions about who they're accusing as the culprit. Bu…

If I can vent for a second, this company has no leadership . None. Things may have changed in 2 years, but I doubt it. I was messaged almost daily by random employees asking wtf wa…

I'm pretty sure I'm safe. I left as soon as I could (almost 2 years ago) once I realized how institutionally broken the company was.

I mean, don't get me wrong, there absolutely _is_ somebody who's responsible for it, but I wouldn't place any money on Ubiquiti being able to figure out who it really was. They wan…

> Ubiquiti also hinted it had an idea of who was behind the attack, saying it has “well-developed evidence that the perpetrator is an individual with intricate knowledge of our clo…

Greed. 100% greed. While I was there, the CEO loved to just fly between offices (randomly) on his private jet. You never knew where he'd pop up, and that put everybody on edge, bec…

This is not surprising to me at all. IMO, the CEO had a bit of a Steve Jobs hero-worship complex, but only all the bad parts. I can absolutely see him putting two teams on the same…

> can we really trust them absolutely not

I am 100% not surprised. I spent a year working for Ubiquiti, running the Network Controller team. Trust me, this whistle-blower "Adam" (I have a few suspicions of who it actually …

Oh man you have no idea. I spent a year there running the Network Controller team. "Shit show" doesn't even begin to describe it.
