Bug Bounty From MS

<< < (2/2)

Tinman57:
So basically they want you to keep all the bugs you find a secret so that you can be the only person claiming the bounty. This way no-one will put all the bugs up on the net to be laughed at.

Smooth move.

  But the biggest issue is MS gets to decide how much the bug report is worth based on their "Subjective Criteria".  Of course to save themselves a lot of money, all they have to say is "Oh, this bug isn't that big of a deal or important enough to give you very much money....

Stoic Joker:
If somebody dug up three bugs looking to get paid for them, and MS didn't have a decent going rate type price for the first one... I bet the other two would get offered to somebody else first.

Just sayin'... ;)

  I hear the Russian Mafia pays big bucks for bugs, especially for ones that allow back doors and such....   :P
