Systematic Abuse of this and other firewall pages by pfSense Staff

This should be out in the open, Mr.Hmm, gonzopancho, and others, are actual employees at pfSense/netgate, and have been engaged in a campaign of self promotion, and systematic deletion of their competitors mentions and pages. the OPNSense page has been completely deleted, its mentions removed from here by forementioned Mr.Hmm, as he cites that he considers the project "non note-worthy", and their team has also been very hostile in other venues as of late, in regards to anything related to OPNSense. pfSense is in process of switching to a subscription based model, and are fighting vigorously to keep their customer base locked in, and eventually suck them all into support contracts. They seek to prevent their users via mis/dis-information from seeing the option of switching their existing hardware over to OPNSense and other platforms. As OPNSense's feature base is nearly identical to pfSense making it an almost seamless transition, they have targetted it in an effort to prevent customers from doing this. OPNSense originally split off of pfSense itself due to the intent of netgate/pfsense staff to convert the project to a paid/subscription model and little by little make it a non-opensource project, like what oracle has done to projects such as mysql, java, etc...

Funnily enough, it seems this account is a sock puppet itself. For more on whatever is up here, see:

• Removal of OPNsense
• OPNsense promotion and harassement
• see edits by Mr.hmm, Hagennos, 193.248.40.19, Dmahalko, Miraclexix, Joswp, Dustie - and presumably others I've missed - to this document.

WatchGuard missing or not qualified? --Ilari Stenroth (talk) 19:24, 22 April 2018 (UTC)

@IlariS: Entries, especially in large lists of commercial topics, should be "notable" in Wikipedia's sense of the term (see WP:GNG) and already have a sourced stand-alone article. See also WP:WTAF, an essay with some additional advice. GermanJoe (talk) 07:06, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
