OT: I can't describe how much I loathe "for fun and for profit" in titles - especially since the majority aren't linked to anything describing a monetary or resource gain. If you want to say something is useful, find a different way to say it!

I wish those titles had a weight to drag them off the front page much quicker.

Maybe you know this, maybe you do not but these are all a nod to http://insecure.org/stf/smashstack.html which itself did not directly involve profit. It's a security thing.

I know, but it's the equivalent of "x considered harmful". It just shows a lack of originality.

Given that this code is used in major browsers that pay quite generous bug bounties it's likely that they made quite some profit out of that project.

We use FFmpeg in our products (open-source and closed-source software) and so fixing on-air issues caused by FFmpeg was of the highest priority.
