The point is that finding a vuln and investigating it to the extent required to prove it works is security researcher behavior. Actually exploiting it and dumping all of a site's user data is malicious. If he had leaked stuff relevant to the capitol riots or something, maybe understandable, though using the vuln to do so would still have been wrong.
- binaryblitz 6y agoJust as a friendly heads up, @donk_enby used she/her pronouns.
- binaryblitz 6y agoWow. Downvoted to negative for politely correcting pronoun usage. Not sure what I should've expected given the average user of HN.
- skinkestek 6y agoFWIW my guess is there probably wouldn't be any downvotes if you just wrote "is a girl/woman". Personally I don't care about the difference but just mentioning "pronouns" seems to be enough to trigger the downvote reflex - "pronouns" has been abused to create so much drama the last few years that I can kind of see why people react even if I don't do.
