Story of why we cannot have nice things

Here is a story of how couple bad actor ruin a good program I run a bug bounty program for a company. It's just literally me so sometime there is delays and such. I've had some really good bugs coming in and had paid out > $5000 in total, some of the bugs are pretty good, although they are still ai slop, but good ai slop. However, there are couple dudes that went crazy when they don't receive a response (to their ai slop "bug reports") One dude starts emailing random company employees, including the CEO The other dude threatens our community manager and scared them quite a lot The same dude in No. 2 doxxed our employee and called them on mobile directly. I personally respect the hustle, but doxxing is not it. Now the boss is mad and I have to change the bug bounty program to not give out cash to not incentivize those crazy behaviors. I might even have to shut it down completely. I honestly feel sorry for other bug bounty hunters that I worked with., but some of your "peers" are destroying this whole thing with hope to get some quick cash. submitted by /u/kritikal69 [link] [comments]
