Ask HN: Is Google Project Zero for Freelance Security Researchers?
1 point by thrownaway954 on Aug 11, 2019 | hide | past | favorite
I see this stories like this all the time now... Someone finds a security vulnerability in a piece of software, tries to do the responsible thing by contacting the company and are ignored. They then use the vulnerability to contact the company and all hell brakes loose.

I would like to know where can a security researcher report these vulnerability so that they get fixed in a timely manner and take themselves out off the equation?
