Like the journalists who disclosed early in this case.

And that showed that even though there were plenty of people in on it,
not enough were included.  There are minor cloud providers out there
running niche operating systems that are now going to struggle to stay
in business, and stay secure.

Not to mention Intel, whose own CEO bet against the company.
