The video has many inaccuracies.

While the gist of it is correct, and physical OSI layers separation is indeed better for control (there is a valid reasons for “hardware” firewalls to exist), a lot of what she says is vastly extrapolated at best, or arguably wrong at worst.

And then, yes, regardless of the content, I’m pretty sure YouTube videos will be downvoted here.
