• Kaspersky uncovered iOS vulnerabilities in ‘Operation Triangulation’, reported to Apple, but was refused bounty payment
  • Apple’s Security Bounty Program offers rewards up to $1 million for discovering vulnerabilities to prevent them from being sold on the dark web
  • Apple’s refusal to pay Kaspersky could be due to restrictions on financial transactions with companies in sanctioned countries like Russia.

    Anyone else hate the presedent this will set?

    Also anyone else get the impression apple is going above and beond the line of duity when inforcing the US laws. What other reason does apple have to not fufill their end of the deal through giving the money to charody.

    To be blunt, this feels like a, “Fuck you, got mine. the law is the law, our hands are tied 😏” moment.

      No, Russia fucked Kaspersky on this by invading Ukraine.

      To be blunt, your spelling is atrocious even if you are not a native english speaker.

      Propaganda fueled alligator tears, cognitive dissonance, or just looney tunes bullshit?

        No, Apple fucked themselves because one of the largest security firms now has much less incentive to work white hat.

          It’s just more manufactured outrage. There’s enough reasons to take issue with Apple, this is not the example to use.
