Yubico: Secure Hardware vs. Open Source

Point being that if you support open-source, then Yubico isn't your champion. They failed in sense that it harms their business, not much more than that.

I'd say that Yubico isn't a big deal, therefore them discontinuing NEO isn't a big deal either.

If you care about crypto you should probably care what happens to the most appealing device out there and if you care about open source you should probably care what happens to companies that makes open sourcing part of their business.

This is getting nowhere, so let's stop. It's one of those "let's agree to disagree" moments. I certainly don't find yubikey particularly appealing and you already said that they "failed" when it comes to open-source, which I agreed with.
