Yes, she&#8217;s right. Breaking the EULA is against the law.  You can&#8217;t argue about that. <\/p>\n<p>You can&#8217;t argue that they should be paying a bug bounty. You may *want* them to pay a bug bounty, but that is the companies decision. If they choose not to pay a bug bounty, that&#8217;s their prerogative.    <\/p>\n<p>As a consumer, you can choose to use their product (EULA and all) or not. That is something that you have control over.  <\/p>\n<p>As a researcher, you can choose to break the EULA or not. Arguing that someone should modify their EULA so that what you&#8217;re doing isn&#8217;t a violation is childish. <\/p>\n<p>I wish Oracle had stood by their CSO and left the blog online. I understand that they don&#8217;t want additional scrutiny on their product, but the scrutiny will be there irregardless (as it has been for many years now). Leaving the post online would have shown some &#8216;backbone&#8217;. If INFOSEC goes PC, it&#8217;s bad for us all. I&#8217;d rather someone tell me what they really think and we can go from there.  <\/p>\n<p>!Dmitry<br \/> dmitry.chan@gmail.com<\/p>\n<div class=\"printfriendly pf-alignleft\"><a href=\"#\" rel=\"nofollow\" onclick=\"window.print(); return false;\" class=\"noslimstat\" title=\"Printer Friendly, PDF &#038; Email\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border:none;-webkit-box-shadow:none; box-shadow:none;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.printfriendly.com\/buttons\/printfriendly-button.png\" alt=\"Print Friendly, PDF &#038; Email\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.securiteam.com\/index.php\/archives\/2545\" target=\"bwo\" >https:\/\/blogs.securiteam.com\/index.php\/feed<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.printfriendly.com\/buttons\/printfriendly-button.png\"\/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Credit to Author: dmitryc| Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2015 16:34:29 +0000<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The internet (or at least twitter) is exploding regarding this, now deleted, post : Mary Ann Davidson blog post Let me start by saying that she is right.
