That's insane, thank you for your work.

It reminds me of this story in Iowa, where pentesters were arrested and charged with felonies for breaking into a courthouse they were hired to infiltrate:

I'm not an expert in this area, but was interested in that story when it happened. Reading commentary from others in the industry suggested that they were, at best, naive in their handling of that contract. Yes charging them was a political act to save face, but they put themselves in that position through ignorance. Quite a different situation from a reporter and responsible disclosure in my opinion.
