Much respect to Microsoft and their new found love of bounty programs, but pioneer is a bit of a stretch - they launched their first bounty program in 2013, well after third party bug bug buyers like ZDI, and even after BugCrowd and other bug bounty as a service companies launched.

I feel like Katie Moussouris switched from SDL to bug bounty stuff at MSFT in like 2011, but I may have the dates fuzzed up a little bit.

Really the only point I want to make is that this is not Microsoft announcing their first bounty program.
