This post reminded me of why Twitter is a pretty awful place.
The replies to this tweets are all everyones snarky comments to the @AppleSupport account or their edgy 'hot takes' on the issue. @AppleSupport responded promptly - albeit obviously out of their depth, and a bunch of people couldn't help but make fun of this fact. It's almost like tweeting to Apple's customer support account is not the best way to report a vulnerability?
Responsible disclosure has a proven history of working. When the vulnerability is appropriately patched and disclosed to the public, there is still a lot of backlash. You only need to look at the recent responsibly disclosed vulnerabilities for proof of this. Instead, we have a bunch of armchair analysts—who don't at all seem to be driven by past occurrences / existing data in any way—claiming that it didn't work.
