- jacobsenscott 3y agoThis is an awesome idea. The next time a glibc CVE comes out every company in the world pays a fine, if they are impacted or not! Hey - you could even file 1000s of frivolous CVEs (which is already common) you know would affect your competition! (which is how that would pan out)
- Eisenstein 3y agoIt is a shame that ideas never progress any farther than super basic principles before they are implemented so that totally predicable outcomes that cynical people on internet forums mention become inevitable.
- Geisterde 3y agoWhat a wonderful idea. Im sure our nobel politicians will ignore their donors this time and craft legislation that puts large companies at constant threat of more fines. This could never be weaponized against small businesses that pose competition to the bigger fish.
