I love Tailscale, but you are really then just substituting one company's remote access for another's. I'm quite certain that TS are more capable of creating a secure system than Ubiquiti are, but still, the principle of not trusting others with access to your network, is violated by TS.

I agree that enabling any form of remote access controlled by a third party increases attack surface, but I also feel like Tailscale has earned more of my trust than other vendors with the quality of their past security responses.

(If anyone has examples of Tailscale incidents ending badly please share and I’ll update my trust accordingly, but to date I haven’t heard any.)

That incident ended badly for anyone that had a Windows box and got 0wned. Tailscale's response was good, but my trust in the software they produce was damaged by that incident. I'm a current Tailscale user (esp with their AppleTV app), but that incident wasn't good.
