Have you ever worked in open space environments? The noise is aweful, the distrubances are maximized, people walking all over the place, it is awkward when somebody comes to me and we dont have a place to talk other than right there - and t

Google just wants the work done for them. If you can make an exploit, you can explain how it works and how to patch it. On the other hand if Google just sees an exploit in action, they have to spend time reverse-engineering it to find out h
