Going back to that not worth the payment clause bro. That part of the agreement states they reserve the right to not pay you a dime, but take the work you did anyway. WebKit exploits probably won't be worth a lot anyway, considering 11.0+ we've only got userland for browserhax
Pirates and homebrewers make up an incredibly miniscule share of the market. The Vita is dead because it doesn't have any good games. This is the folly of every system that has a shit tier library, as it deters pirates and legitimate customers away from buying the actual hardware.
Well yeah. Being too secure can be bad. Like being always online or DRM that cripples the system

Ah, I see what you're saying. I guess I didn't read the fine print closely enough.
Doesn't matter. The bounty page clearly states that any material submitted immediately becomes Nintendo's property and that the submitter may not further modify the material in order to circumvent any patch created for it. Anyone is free to do so, but I'm pretty sure Nintendo will slam the legal hammer down on them (or anyone that propagates it) super fucking hard. Like, if Nedwill were to submit slowhax to them then go "lel, fuk u" and change it up a bit to further circumvent any preventative measure Nintendo created against it would land him with a pretty lawsuit.
I doubt it, cause they are asking people to intentionally hack their system, which is meant to benefit them from creating a piracy proof system. They can't prove they really pirated any thing, and the last thing they'd want to do is punish the hand feeding them these exploits.
I...what? Yes, they are asking people to intentionally hack their systems for the sake of security auditing. But the bounty page also states that the code cannot be further modified once submitted to Nintendo. I honestly don't understand how you derived your statement from my context.
Lmao, because this community is disgraceful
Nobody is. Smea, Yeallows8, and SALT have all stated that they're not interested. Of course they don't speak for others, but the general consensus is nobody cares. Like I said, in comparison to other bug bounties ran by major companies, Nintendo just makes themselves seem like the crying little kid on the playground that just got his toy taken away. They should have started this campaign at the very beginning of the 3DS's life, but instead they just assume that the majority of their customers are children, or staunch adults, and continue to pander in such a way. NoJ has seen the western world either as closed minded adults that won't open themselves to child-like enjoyment (hence the US SNES color scheme being rather monochrome, as opposed to the Japanese and European releases), or as total retards that need hand holding throughout their entire gaming experience (hence all the spoon feeding and NERFing of current games). They, for whatever reason, cannot accept that there is a middle ground of hackers and hardcore gamers until now.
I don't, and I gladly promote that. Sure, the amount of piracy that has been achieved in this community is overwhelming, but how it was achieved is glorious. I live for that. I've been a reverse engineer for a quite a long time (I started out with releasing keygens for Adobe CS2), and I love the ambition behind these kinds of scenes. The idea behind it all isn't copyright infringement, but rather achieving what people say can't be done. We don't care about costing or saving a company money; we only care about breaking their pompous protections.
If somebody in closed groups leaked some kind of info (it's happened before in this scene) then the group is definitely all over them. "Snitches get stitches" has been a long standing principle of this scene, which I totally respect. It's more than can be said about the PC/Mac scene. Gaming scenes tend to be quite loyal because everyone involved is your typical, average Joe. Though I can say that $22 grand is a major incentive, but they're obviously targeting 33c3 speakers with this. They really don't care about save editors, NTR/Gateway cheating, or common userland exploits because all these things don't cost them money. They just posted that to save face. What they really want is another A9LH (the otpless findings, for example, would be something they would pay for provided it weren't already public). This is why the pay gap is so wide; $100 to $22,000. Yeah right. With other bug bounties, you get a static amount for any bug found.
I think that means that they give you permission to hack it once you find a said exploit, but after that, you can't further modify your system
