Hackers exploited Windows 0-day for 6 months after Microsoft knew of it
I don't think that's a good example. While Apache devs are volunteers and Microsoft devs are employees, they were criticized for their slow response time and seeming lack of urgency until it was far too late.

The Dedicated Maintainers Behind Lesser-Known Open Source Projects
However, there are many open source projects that are widely used but not well-known, including cURL, ImageMagick, MyCLI, Homebrew, Apache Log4j, and OpenSSL. This article will take a closer look at these unsung heroes of the open source world. I do not want to give them a business model or financial advice in this article. This largely depends on the author's personal experience and values. I just want to raise more awareness about these open source projects.

Log4Shell Still Has Sting in the Tail
> When it was first revealed in early December 2021, the Log4Shell bug was described as one of the most severe security vulnerabilities ever.
> The Apache Software Foundation, which maintains the open-source tool, quickly released a patch...
Apache horribly mismanaged this and did not release a patch until it was already widely known and being exploited in the wild. They also messed up and had to release several subsequent patches to actually fix the vulnerability.
Remember: this vulnerability was disclosed to them in November.

5 Best Logging Solutions for Java
Log4J(https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/) is a Java-based logging framework. It is a part of Apache Logging Services. It was also the most popular and widely used Java logging solution until the exposure of its Log4Shell vulnerability last year.

System Logger
Most applications currently use Log4J2 or SLF4J. Both provide a compatible System.Logger implementation.

Toronto paramedic union issues warning after no ambulances were available to respond to life-threatening call
In software, you can go and see exactly who did what, when. How the Log4Shell vulnerability was patched, its detailed history and can work out how long that vulnerability was there for. Same with Wikipedia, where you can see every edit and discuss those that were made. It should not take a law degree and weeks of examination to find some bullshit is being slid into a bill, this is criminal.

Uhhh has anyone else not had to change anything for Log4j?
I thought the same thing last Friday, then I ran this: (find / -name 'log4j*') found a few web servers with log4j running. Then went through this list: https://github.com/cisagov/log4j-affected-db found 2 more Internet facing servers on the list.

Log4j 2.15.0 – Previously suggested mitigations may not be enough
The major risk here probably isn't in-house developed code but versions of log4j used in a vast array of packaged software and systems.
https://github.com/cisagov/log4j-affected-db <-- that's a (probably incomplete) list of affected vendors and applications, and in many cases the vendor can't even say yet whether they're vulnerable.

2021-12-15: Log4Shell (CVE-2021-44228 & CVE-2021-45046) Update
CISA Log4j (CVE-2021-44228) Vulnerability Guidance
Quick thought, if I might: this CVE is going to be difficult for all vulnerability scanners, including Spotlight, as vendors that bundle vulnerable versions of Log4j are not issuing new CVEs for their product — they are piggybacking on 44228. For this reason, vuln. management solutions have to try and write a rule sets for a single CVE that covers tens of thousands of pieces of software. You can see a large, but not exhaustive, list of software that is impacted here.
- PSA: When there's a 0day, don't trust random people on the internet. Verify everything.
