I'm not technically competent. At least as far as crypto goes. But I can understand things like "shortens the time needed for a brute force attack" quite fine. And many non technical people can do the same. By littering this article with petty personal bullshit, he commits the same sin as cryptocat: failing to inform users.

Unlike the Cryptocat team, he is not actually obligated to inform Cryptocat's user base; regardless, he's done them a huge service by donating his time to finding vulnerabilities.
