I've gone over it my head many times and I don't see a scenario where it doesn't get leaked if they expand their circle a bit. Think about it, they don't truly KNOW any of us. I could easily VPN into a secure off site location then proxy to China and open a new account and post a file or link on here. It's not rocket science.
Now having said that...
They have their own reasons for hanging on to it. Whatever they are, it doesn't matter. The person who developed the exploit owns all their own projects. He/she doesn't owe any of us anything. Whatever they give us, be grateful and wait for more.
You are responsible for the choices you make. No one else. Even if someone told you to update on here. They didn't push the button or force your hand. You have to use your brain and make a decision and then LIVE with that choice.
I updated without doing my research and paid the price. I was lucky enough to find a 5.4u and bought that. Now I have two. 5.5.1u and 5.4u. That's what responsible adults do. "Why cry over spilt milk?" Get up off your ass and do something about it.
You can't get a new wii u? Then learn to code and find your own exploit. There are a ton of great tutorials online to get you started.
If programming isn't your cup of tea and you don't have the resources (or the cunning
) to get a new wii u then you have one choice... Wait and in the meantime STFU
