Microsoft has reportedly stopped giving Chinese companies proof-of-concept exploit code for soon-to-be-disclosed vulnerabilities following last month’s SharePoint zero-day attacks, which appear to be related to a leak in Redmond’s early-bug-notification program.

That must be extremely frustrating internally at MS.

    If that was any argument. Who doesn’t steal everything from everyone ? Everything on this planet is literally build from stealing. It’s just good guys vs bad guys. I no longer know who is bad or good in this game.
