          Who said only internet-facing assets need to be patched?

              What would be the point of a router not connected to any network?

                  This comment thread is about an unpatched router (probably in production) at a Canadian Internet exchange

                    I have seen a Cisco router with 17 years of uptime in an internet exchange in Canada.

                    What’s an internet exchange in this context? I thought it meant an online forum.

                    Bro. There are people who are developing in Cobol for 50 year old systems.

                    There are games still being released for the original, 80s-era Nintendo.

                    So… yeah. Unlikely? Sure. Impossible? Nope.
