Security firm Keeper sues news reporter over vulnerability story (zdnet.com) 9 points by loteck 8y ago ↗ HN
[–] guywaffle 8y ago ↗ Why go after the journalist instead of the engineer who found it? The engineer also posted the vulnerability. [–] loteck 8y ago ↗ Because the complaint isn't about the vulnerability disclosure, it's about Ars knowingly publishing inaccurate information, i.e. libel. [–] guywaffle 8y ago ↗ Yes, but a lot of the statements Keeper is upset about are the same ones the engineer reported.
