i agree with you that preserving anonymity is a valid goal. spending 20-30 minutes on the phone is not how one should run something like a whistle-blower's hotline.
i don't agree with the idea that you are "...being kind and generous by not exploiting...".
- click170 15y agoI'm curious, if notifying them instead of exploiting the bug doesn't qualify as 'kind', then what do you call it? As far as im concerned that's being bloody gracious and generous.
- LXicon 15y agoyes, notifying them is kind. simply not exploiting them is not. it's like saying i'm being kind for not robbing someone.
