Google security researcher Ian Beer recently suggested that the company Apple should send almost $2,5 million to charity, due to the constant reporting of the huge number of bugs he discovered in the operating system iOS.
Ian Beer works at Google as a member of the Project Zero team. He is in charge of identifying vulnerabilities in other companies' software security. The companies concerned will then be given ninety days to fix the bugs before the software is officially released to the public.
Company Apple has its own bug bounty program, aimed at paying for discovered errors. Under this program, it pays security researchers to identify these bugs in its operating systems. However, it has - as with many other similar programs - one catch: participation in the program is only possible on the basis of a special invitation. According to a report published on Business Insider, Beer calculated that his bug reports would theoretically net him nearly $1,23 million if he were allowed to participate in the program. In case the company Apple "payout" for revealed errors, she pointed out to the charity, the amount would be doubled. Beer gave no specific reason why he decided to go public with his complaint about the way Apple builds bugs and vulnerabilities in their operating systems. As part of his speech, however, he noted that Apple he does a "lousy job" of fixing bugs that are reported to him.

Apple officially launched its program two years ago. It offers security researchers a payout of maxat least $200. But a year later, the program was labeled "waning" because the payouts were relatively low. Security researchers earn much more if they sell bug reports to governments or companies that attack Apple devices.
Dude, if android did it, google wouldn't exist anymore 😂
The question is, how much money do they owe for all those Androids? :D
Sooooo definitely

Well, maybe it's impossible to express it in words. Exactly Google and its most leaky Android semi-finished product
I wonder if Android even exists 😂
IOS can afford to send millions to charity, Google can't :D
let Google send compensation to everyone it spies on ✌🏽
That headline sounds like a pretty cool joke
If Google will pay for errors in Android, why not.. just to make Google pay 😂😄
Therefore, google should be sold entirely (when it comes to mistakes) 😂
so thanks to Ian we have jailbreak, so AppI'm not surprised they didn't send him an invitation 😁😁😁
Lol, if google had to pay like this for mistakes, I wouldn't exist anymore
And the crowd should google everything they have for charity and wrap it up 😁😂
Then what about Android. That would be money.
If google sent money for Android bugs to charity, there would be no such thing as hunger or global warming a long time ago….
It's the hooting of the beaten geese again
