Mozilla's 'Code of Silence' Isn't
Jon Lasser, 2002-10-09

Developers are accused of not publicizing the browser's security vulnerabilities enough. But do we really need world wide alerts for every bug?

I bet the fine folks at Securityfocus would love to be one of the "few" who get such notices. Based on Jon's methodology, eventually, only the corporate security sector would have security expertise. U G L Y and greedy ;)

If Jon wants to bash the media for the way they generally hype information, sobeit. But he's off base if he thinks the general public should not be able to obtain the information. If the general public can get it, so can the media. Give up on chasing your tail, the media hypes what they choose to make themselves more money.
