It is curious that Google is perfectly fine keeping an Intel embargo for a long while when it affects them, but is very strict about disclosure when the exploit affects others.

- auiya 7y agoWhy do you assume Google wouldn't be affected by a Windows bug? Have you forgotten about the compromise of their corp networks by a Chinese APT in 2008/9 which leveraged Windows as the attack surface? The reason for disclosures like this to expedite bug fixes is because they have skin in the game.
