> I believe the best course of action for a SCADA vulnerability would be to let the vendor know first, That's fine, but the controversy around the proper mode of disclosure is here to stay. For every good argument you make, there is an equally compelling counter-argument that other reasonable people believe in good faith. It really comes down to personal beliefs, and nothing has changed here in the past 15 years or so. Any of us can disagree, but lashing out against other people seems first of all impolite, and second, somewhat amusing on this particular forum. /mz
