Responsible disclosure for a meme-level mistake, lol. I understand letting them know. I agree. Painting them as equally wrong, no. "Popular website"; you mean

  The article says: "Nearly a thousand children under the age of 18 with their live location, photo, and age being beamed up to a database that's left wide open." Meme-level mistake is one thing, but their wrong doesn’t grant the right to be irresponsible for the author.

    I don't believe this is irresponsible, they called for readers to report the app. We can all contact the host and go escalate if we want. I wouldn't suggest anyone recreate this process just to sanitize what's sitting around. There you go, new trolley problem.

  Pushing out an exact way to extract that data without giving the creator time to fix it may even be worse than using such code in production. The data may than be in the hands of malicious people who wouldn’t have found it otherwise

    Go talk to the abuse contact, I won't stop you
