  There is no such thing as responsible disclosure.

        Sounds like an affirmative claim, can you prove that? ;)

  See http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4016867 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4016867. In general, note that the people demanding responsible disclosure (i.e. major vendors) also greatly benefit from it. (In general, creating and enforcing an ethical norm is not itself an ethically neutral act.)
