@phnt@fluffytail.org you might think so, but it was you who deployed vulnerable software from an untrustworthy vendor. Yes, you. You put your trust in a corporation that leaks (or worse, sells for profit) data left and right, hires subpar engineers, reluctantly spends pocket change on QA, and in a normal world wouldn't be trusted with candy. So called "ethical disclosure" only upholds this status quo of you and your kin pretending everything is fine. It's not fine. It hasn't been fine for a long time now. Full disclosure only reveals this very uncomfortable fact.

@icon_of_computational_sin@mstdn.starnix.network Fully trustworthy vendor and non-vulnerable software does not exist. The world you are thinking of isn't real, for many things are you stuck with some vendor and or some other vendor and that's it. You either use that or you can build your own, which usually results in something even worse. Or are you running an OS along with the whole userspace on our computer that has been mathematically proven do that what it says it does without error?
