> Are you a fool for not finding the ones in yours?

If I have a company which sells a paid product, and my paid engineers do not find bugs then I absolutely do not expect the public to willfully and freely make my product better for me. This is why I would have a bug bounty program as an incentive for the public to help me makle my product better and more secure, like any other company serious about finding security bugs.

If I didnt have a bug bounty program and found out that some black hats were selling backdoors to my system online, I would consider that fully my fault for not incentivizing those hackers against doing so.
