I'll preface this by saying: I DO appreciate tailscale and what they've done for frictionless VPNs; I use it daily. But this post has a really unfortunate tone, it comes across as really arrogant. Not ambitious, but arrogant. The notion that the population as a whole is buying tailscale because it might offer some as-yet unpublished capabilities at some non-determinant point in the future... is delusional. And tailscale's moat is very shallow - yes, there's some nifty networking stuff going on, but it's well understood and the functionality will be replicated by competitors as tailscale gains mainstream traction, however big their warchest is.
