    Didn’t Microsoft just pull this same thing and now there’s all these 0-days getting released publicly as vengeance? I swear, all these companies are sharing the same brain cell…

        Plus they are following the lead of the leadership of the country, which is cheating everyone that you are able to.

        And the people in the houses
        All went to the university
        Where they were put in boxes
        And they came out all the same

        And there’s doctors and lawyers
        And business executives
        And they’re all made out of ticky-tacky
        And they all look just the same

        And they all play on the golf course
        And drink their martinis dry
        And they all have pretty children
        And the children go to school

        And the children go to summer camp
        And then to the university
        Where they are put in boxes
        And they come out all the same

    A long time ago I felt like bug bounty programs would be an amazing way forward… Now I’m firmly in the camp of fuck it, sell it to the highest bidder.

    Well the next time someone finds a bug in their software they will have to find other ways to monetize it.

    What a stupid expectation. A company with a market cap of 700 billion can’t just throw 10.000 bucks around. Ya’ll need to think of the sustainability of the company.

    Nothing quite like creating a specific incentive for researchers to seek “alternative” sources of income as payment for their research efforts.

    Microsoft tried this … seems to be working out for them … not.
