And you know how are those technical debts created in the first place? More than 40 years of negligence in IT infrastructure.
What does that mean exactly?
For my part, I have my pet neglects based on observing the parade of hacks: private companies neglecting to fund open source projects upon which they rely; private companies neglecting to fund product security staffing and remediation sufficiently.
So the technical debt in the article is about companies not giving enough money to open source projects?
