Tom why do you badmouth companies that support you?

Why would you offer an alarm panel that you say has "gaping security
holes" since a majority of them are installed with Alarm.com modules?
(Lance and Scott love Alarm.com otherwise it wouldn't be in the panel,
2GIG makes their cell communicators and Alarm.com supplies the SIM
cards)

How many 2GIG panels have you purchased and how many have Alarm.com
modules installed?
