are you replying to the right person?

I'm not hating on any business or trying to "kill" any business.

I'm saying serve yourself, not them. if you have say, a 0 day on your hands, do what serves you best.

is that "ghetto punk ass behavior"?

what are you on about?

Yes.

If you have say, managed to find an overlooked passage into an ostensibly high security building, "doing what serves you best" such as selling the information to some thugs, is in fact that kind of behavior.

I think that's a bit different.

for real security bugs, like, you can literally sell them to brokers who sell them to governments. would selling stuff to the CIA be ghetto?

morally, it depends. but after seeing so many posts of e.g. Google cheapskating on bug reports, it really makes no sense to me to participate in such a broken system.

this case however is quite different as it was a B2B encounter and during vendor vetting

like to me it just seems like a fair deal, if Google wants their bugs patched (which they can definitely afford to do) they'd just pay properly for serious bugs and so on, and everybody would be happy. it's not some kind of thing where they can't do anything about.

maybe you can understand the angle I'm coming from?

Making Nazi salutes, and defending people who do, is ghetto punk ass behavior.
