With inequality on the rise, I would expect hats to start darkening at increased rates. I've personally sworn off any more responsible disclosures to companies not paying at least $1,000/hr(USD) in rewards or without clearly good intentions. I am not bending and very backwards to find it either. Any shenanigans is instant disclosure and shenanigans exposure. I'm about to be homeless and know of exploits currently working at 20billion dollar companies. They can't even bother responding to emails... There's a point where one has to focus on needs. Morality I want, food I need.

This attitude isn't helping anyone, yourself included... but if you leaned into responsible disclosure you might find your way into a job that saves you from homelessness.

> Morality I want, food I need. Yes, but jail food isn't all that it's cracked up to be and if you are able to get that kind of work done then your choice isn't $1000/hour for undisclosed vulnerabilities or starving, the viable alternative is just to get a job. With those skills you are 10x as employable as most people that are currently jobless. At least.

  Prison food is okay, depends where you go and how you handle yourself. Low security prison is just adult daycare, which is where a hacker will end up. Hacker knowledge is highly appreciated in prison. I should mention that I don't intend to release or sell anything harmful. I just recently experienced this issue and I came out on the right side(?). I can see someone coming out the other side too, too easily. My intent rather is to stop working for free. I will notice it, note it, eliminate my personal exposure, and ignore it. I would say that puts me somewhere between white and black. It's not easy (for me) to find employment. My last company was in automotive advertising(bankrupt) and I am aware of quite a few more problems than what you see in this disclosure. Though the listed brands are outside of my knowledge.

        No idea, flagged. The ease with which people tend to think they can diagnose others from five lines of text is baffling.
