this is fucking moronic.
if the exploit is not used publicly, someone will exploit it in secret if they can figure out a way to make money out of it. it's better that we all know.
fix the fucking holes instead of burying your head in the sand pretending they don't exist.
test it until it fails. failure is always a fucking option.
Agreed. Vandals and criminals fulfil an important role.
The mistake you're making is in thinking that BCX was 'just trying to help' when in fact this whole episode is more about his nose being out of joint that the devs didn't take his advice when he gave it. There will be plenty more clowns where BCX came from who don't need to make such a performance over it.
