That fucking snitch. You're supposed to keep it private and let Microsoft figure it out themselves.

On the other hand, Gowdiak has not provided the technical details of his findings to Microsoft. The researcher is displeased with the way the tech giant handled his previous PlayReady vulnerability report, saying that his work was mostly ignored. Gowdiak claims Microsoft has now requested additional information on the findings, informing him that the research may be eligible for a bug bounty reward, but the researcher says at this point he is only willing to share the information with the vendor through a commercial agreement.
