Suspending his account doesn't make any sense. He could easily sign up with another email account. Set up a new set of keys on another computer and he's back at it. GH should be working with him instead... he obviously knows what he's doing.


That's the purpose of sending attempted uses of this exploit straight to the highest place possible: so if he does, they know

Working with him to do what? He pissed about a little with WebInspector, it doesn't make him a security consultant

He threatened to do more damage to your site, why wouldn't you suspend someone like that?


I mostly agree with you in principle, but sometimes you push the big red button and sort out the pieces later, like when it's not a Sunday.
