Likely they’ll just ban your account for some "vulnerability abuse" or "hacking", even though they themselves said just days ago "this is not a vulnerability".

I’ve seen it before, reported a vulnerability to Google, got a "not a vulnerability, not eligible for anything" back, published the PoC on my website, and Google subsequently blacklisted my domain, IP range, and everything.

Can you link to more details? If this is true then it should be flagged and fixed.

Oh, it was. But only after I asked a Google employee via social media if he could flag it to get it fixed (which actually did help).

It’s a bit suboptimal when the only real way to fix issues is via HN or similar sites.
