Context: Chris Krebs was CISA director in 2020. Trump fired him via tweet after Krebs stated the election was secure. Trump retaliated by issuing an Executive Order against SentinelOne, where Krebs worked, on April 9, stripping all employees of their security clearances and referring Krebs for investigation.
Chris Krebs - this Krebs - isn't the KrebsOnSecurity Krebs - that's Brian Krebs. There are two Krebs in security, but only one KrebsOnSecurity!
I know submission titles ordinarily need to match the source, but the context eluded me here.
Who wants to do business in a country where the president can go after you because he or any of his lackeys holds a grudge against you? The list gets longer and narrower:
- universities
- law firms
- students
- journalists
- scientists
- green card holders
- individual companies
- individual judges
- individuals
For a country that claims to use the carrot and the stick method to make companies onshore manufacturing, there seems to be way too many of sticks involved.
I’ve long believed that for a private company to remain independent, it must never solicit business from the government and/or state-owned entities - recent events make it viscerally clear

Trump is a wimp.

As a Swedish boss of mine once said "that's not even a fart in space".
It's the right thing to do, and I appreciate it. But it's like trying to stop the Reichstag Fire with a teaspoon of water.
