And as if by magic this episode of 60 minutes appeared, some of the interviews are over 2 years old, including the one with Dimitri Alperovitch, one of the founders of Crowdstrike.

Only two years later he’s eating these very words.

Almost as if he or his company were targeted for their bombastic posturing…
