There's actually interesting issues with how property paid for through mortgages are impacted by nuclear regulations. I recall something deep in my mortgage about how (I think) the nuclear regulatory control act placed restrictions on local use vis a vis nuclear energy.

In general the court seems to try to go to the easiest decision point in a case. The copyrightability of an API is less relevant if the user being sued should win regardless because of fair use. This is better than a plurality decision where there's multiple reasonings on API copywrite that make future decisions difficult. Here at least the court gives guidance on how to think about evaluating fair use in this context, which lower courts can apply.

infoblox is a company that does DNS, DHCP, and IPAM management. I think the big concern there is that it is at least named to look like it is their CTO's files, so who knows what is in there.

The need to use a third party plugin to get any form of cloud sync working for one. Minor weirdness with it scrolling through your secret share structure on the left instead of up and down your passwords if you have accidentally clicked over (a feature that acts more like a bug). The lack of ability (or at least any documentation) on how to use something like Google Authenticator as MFA for the database.

Question for you, what company do you work for? I've really wanted to break into NGO security in particular for a lot of reasons. Spent a lot of years working in NGOs, and now do internal corporate security. Pay's better but it feels different. Could you possibly reach out to me? pdoconnell at gmail
