Why go after the journalist instead of the engineer who found it? The engineer also posted the vulnerability.

Because the complaint isn't about the vulnerability disclosure, it's about Ars knowingly publishing inaccurate information, i.e. libel.

Yes, but a lot of the statements Keeper is upset about are the same ones the engineer reported.
