Everybody wins here. It's a bargain for Apple, because their ledgers deal with numbers that require the -illions suffixes, but it's ALSO $10k per person, which even after taxes is still a lot of money on top of their regular salary for anyone with bills to pay.

Good pentester costs typically $2000 per day. Given the amount of work they did, the return feels like a slap in the face. Certainly it won't encourage highly skilled people to hunt for security holes.

At least $10k per person since the total payouts are still coming in and haven't included any of the high or critical exploits so far.
