G2 is such a pathetic follower
sees stories about 996 from China...makes sure he gets a fake "I work 18 hours a day, 7 days a week" story planted
sees companies acquiring with founders from of Israeli military unit...just finds one and makes a bid
this is really how this guy works...scans his Twitter feed and decides how to spend billions
oh well good for all the startups who get $$$ showered on them by this fool
no one will ever call him on it because frankly no analyst really cares about Cisco enough to deep-dive on it and ask hard questions
Technology giant Cisco is in advanced negotiations to acquire Israeli cybersecurity company Axonius for $2 billion, Calcalist has learned.
Axonius said in response: “Axonius is not in talks to be acquired by Cisco. Our strategy is to build a durable, independent company. We are focused on execution, serving our customers, and continuing our growth. That is where our attention is.”
even this company don't want to be publicly assosiated with us now. surely they should be like "yeah, pretty advanced talks for $2bn, but nothing is signed yet so y'know we're still open to other offers wink-wink". flat out denial doesn't exactly make this sound reliable
@ag You nailed it.
More duplicate functionality. Another org with their own tech stack that doesn't integrate with anything else in SBG. Another needless overbid for a company no one else is chasing.
Just when you thought the disaster of SBG couldn't get worse. I can't even figure out the rationale here...just pile the garbage so high that eventually some of it spontaneously congeals into a golden egg?
