Didn't Google also recently used their stupid AI to find exploits in FFMPEG and then blackmailed them to fix it before deadline or they will release them to the public? If banning a dev for such "act" is right, then banning the company should also be right. Ban all of them.

There was a protocol for reporting security vulnerabilities. Of course some companies don't follow the protocol when vulnerabilities are reported to them, but that's their problem.

You report the problem and then you wait 1 month, if the company still hasn't fixed the issue by then, then you publicly announce it.

Unless it is an open source piece of software, any vulnerability I find will be publicly posted while I remove all software using it from all my devices and infrastructure.
