> instead of clout

I'm catching up on the infosec twitter side but it seems like it was even worse. A lot of people have the same story as me in 2023 of "they silently patch the bug and don't even credit you" which really stinks.

That’s most of the why it’s tough to be upset when people just release 0-days on Twitter - especially for big firms.

It definitely reminds me of the stereotypes of big business types stepping on the little guys to climb the ladder.

I hope you get credit where credit is due in future endeavors.
