What should you do if you get a bug report that doesn't follow established protocol? Chester tells you how to deal with so-called "beg bounties", where self-styled "experts" beg you for money or even threaten you with ill-defined "problems" they claim to have found. https://news.sophos.com/en-us/have-a-domain-name-beg-bounty-hunters-may-be-on-their-way https://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/beware-of-technical-experts-bombarding-you-with-bug-reports Original music by Edith Mudge Got questions/suggestions/stories to share?
