This isn't quite as dumb as it sounds.  People begin to realize that
it doesn't make sense to license expensive firewalling software which
suffers from the same vulnerabilities as the services you are trying
to protect (roughly speaking).

For complex protocols, you need one implementation which gets it
right, not two or more which come close, but not close enough.
