What's a fuckass?

Most firewalls are just pretty front-ends for pf/iptables right? Have any of those companies invented their own poo poo, or are they just all slapping linux/bsd on a whiteboxed system?

Depends on how you define most. The big players are definitely not using pf/iptables (Palo, Check Point, Fortinet, Cisco). Keep in mind that both pf/iptables only do ip/port. Whilst a modern NGFW does everything from appcontrol, ips dns security, sd-wan, sandboxing etc.
