Re:How I could have hacked any Facebook account by tptacek on Wednesday March 09, 2016 @11:53AM (#11254023)
That's almost true. If Fb bid only $10, you could see bidding simply for the right to (a) announce the bug or (b) post a hash and lord it over Fb. There's a vanity value for some of these bugs that probably goes into the hundreds of dollars.

But the rest of your point? Yep. Sounds about right. Though I don't think it's quite fair to say that "Fb sets the price, not the market", since Fb is the market for these bugs.
