There's another, much darker side, that absolutely should be discussed when talking about security disclosures....
There's *.onion IRC servers that run illegal ops. I can hop on one right now (with no proxy goofiness using this document I made: https://cdn.hackaday.io/files/12985555550240/Linux%20DNS%20Resolver%20for%20Onions.txt https://cdn.hackaday.io/files/12985555550240/Linux%20DNS%20R... )
And on that IRC server, I can auction and sell various things, including 0day exploits. And I would potentially get paid in bitcoin or whatever I wish.
So here's the math, companies... If you're not willing to purchase them from me, there are other buyers. And they are far unfriendlier. And they pay better too.
Of course, that's if you have the "No Ethics" but don't want to get your hands dirty actually running the exploit code.
- matte_black 8y agoI’d love to be selling exploits to the highest bidder for a living. I have little to no ethics.
