yep, all of that is equivalent to "security by obscurity". Hiding vulnerabilities longer is of no use, it just helps companies to be ready to answer customers, not to fix things in a better way.
- blablabla123 8y agoAlso it's really unfair to most vendors that don't have close ties with the creator of the security problem. E.g. in the case of Intel this turned out really bad for all other OSs except Windows and Linux. On the other hand it makes using products/software from entities who continue with this policy even more unattractive.
