JungleCats··on Ask HN: Worth following up? Publicly facing root passwords on a Fortune 100
Yeah, I guess you are right. It's more that I expected a simple "Thanks" for ensuring that they didn't end up on the front of the New York times at some stage.

Slightly off-topic, but check out this great email from PayPal today.

Hi JungleCats,

Thank you for your participation in the PayPal Bug Bounty program.

While we continue to review each vulnerability we receive on a case-by-case basis, we have determined that this bug is not eligible for payment based on the fact the website is in the process of being decommissioned and will be shut down in the near future.

Thank you, PayPal Security Team

Yeah, I absolutely see where you are coming from.

I considered just emailing the CEO and being all "Hey, thought you should be aware that I've sent multiple emails and just wanted to ensure you are informed"
