        Until the drama settles, I'm going to replace TV with something else. Any recommendations for free (as in free beer), cross platform (Win, OS X, Linux) solution that supports 2 FA?

          We really like ScreenConnect, but it isn't free.

                  I believe TV is privately held. I know LMI is owned by MS though.

                    LMI isn't owned by Microsoft. LMI does own LastPass and Xmarks now though.

                      You sure? I'm almost positive it is..

                          Meh, might as well be with their robbery prices.

                            News to me. Looks private still. But these things are sometimes well hidden or through third parties.

                                  I have never really liked it. It was decent for a free to use product. I never liked their price, because other purchasable solutions were better.

                                    Yeah I should quantify that, for the free version. They were definitely pricey. (Though very willing to negotiate.)

                                      Always found it so ridiculously expensive. Good product, but never cost competitive.

                                        Their competition starts much lower and is also willing to negotiate.

                                          I'm sure that if you press TV today, they'd negotiate pretty well 😉

                                            They also were willing to do monthly when I looked into it. Something like $39 a month for one tech. Was very competitive at the time.
