This has been discussed a few times before on HN and I shared the anecdote that I have attempted to report multiple serious security issues to Google and Facebook and have been completely ignored, 100%. There is a tiered internet nowadays, if you go real name and have a following you are treated quite differently from everyone else. You can't even get a response to emails or forms, much less paid out a bounty if you're not in the former group. The algorithm has made everyone who isn't a minor celebrity irrelevant. I don't care how much it benefits the corporations interested in marketing to me, I don't want a following, thanks. Fortunately being able to "crash google" at will during cocktail parties and job interviews always impresses people, so I guess I'll just keep on doing that until they fix the problem.
