I don't know what this comment means. Could you, or someone else, explain it? Who are the "white hats"? Why do they have different perspectives on full disclosure than other people? Who are those other people?
Maybe a riff on the burgeoning "green hat" practice of selling exploits instead of simply disclosing them, versus black hats releasing them publicly for free?
