Yeah I genuinely don't understand the point here. Who is protecting what?

So the article mentions the threat of retaliation against the security researcher, and you are surprised people are afraid to come out publicly?

I read more in the article so I am updating my comment - the FBI's involvement is surprising and alarming.

When in doubt, people, call your attorney.

Who just has an attorney sitting around who is competent to handle such things? I wouldn't know who the fuck to call if I found something on my bank's website.

I am one such attorney.

Can I get your number?

My sn is my name. I am the only lawyer named Liberty that I am aware of.

More easily, my profile on my firm's website: lawyernamedliberty.com. I'm fairly easy to get in touch with.

So just assume it's your bank, and do whatever you would do next.

Oh, new bank? Just assume it's your bank, and do whatever you would do next.

This is still useful. You can go see if your bank does the described behavior. If not, you're not affected by that particular thing.
