Nit to pick. Prefer the term coordinated disclosure. Responsible disclosure puts things on an unnecessary moral dimension. It’s not irresponsible to disclose bugs ever, IMO. I have seen this debate a million times now, but I know it is new for someone.
- tptacek 7y agoNotice that Intel used the term "coordinated disclosure" for last week's new raft of microarchitecture bugs; "responsible disclosure" is on the way out for exactly the reason you stated.
- bitexploder 7y agoThat is neat, I actually didn’t even notice and I read the thing. Seems like progress on this topic to me.
- kibwen 7y agoThanks for the tip, I didn't know there existed a better term for this. Indeed, I always felt that "responsible" was a loaded adjective in that context.
