I can only say this:
With Cox' self-censoring move, he gave way to the DMCA and other idiocy-plagued conglomerates of sick minds, who only want to play a part in the vast world of the 'net by sueing the hell out of other ppl and companies.
What do you anti-disclosure fans think will the grey/black hats do now? Sit and wait? No dudes, they will keep on tracking flaws in apps and protocols as before, and they will publish these informations on their boards, chats and sites, just like before, accessible for the like-minded or sec-oriented admin.
Nothing, I repeat that, nothing will change. All that DMCA and Microsoft anti-disclosure fuck will be a major handicap for any serious admin, while the crackers laugh their asses off watching grown admins run for cover because of some feeble-minded organisation and their plans of treating us like cattle.
I will raise my middle finger towards Microsoft, the DMCA, and other morons who think that only some "guidelines" or "agreements" of some doubtful sec experts could save anyone from total oblivion.
And what will the DMCA and other trash dumpsters do? Set up some kind of online police to enforce their plans of a brave new world of nice-n-friendly, copyright-obeyin' jellyfish type of M$-admins who drown in masses of pityfull programming errors?
If some admins and other ppl need higher-ranked clowns in CEO positions to think for them, I can only feel sorry for them, nothing more.
Oh Herr, schmeiss Hirn vom Himmel!
