It looks like OP posted an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web.

Maybe check out the canonical page instead: https://techcrunch.com/2022/11/21/broadcoms-proposed-61b-vmware-acquisition-scrutinized-by-uk-regulators/

They probably overpaid. They would love it to be turned back.

That deals why we are dropping VMWares Carbon Black. I know people who used Symantec after they were acquired and it was a unmitigated disaster.

We switched out CarbonBlack for Crowdstrike and started implementing Crowdstrike AV to replace Symantec.

It’s been god awful, couldn’t really even trust when Symantec says it ate a file. Only positive thing was it caught a lot of infected USB drives being plugged in that other AVs didn’t even consider malicious

I use VirtualBox instead of VMWare, it is free and works better. VMWare has become buggy and bloated over the years.

sigh… No, not today…
