Researcher presses Matic: bug bounties align with FOSS, and you're not a startup anymore
aethernet_port · x · 2026-08-30
A security researcher pressed Matic further: bug bounties aren't contradictory to FOSS—they incentivize researchers not to weaponize or sell bugs. A quick search shows Matic has raised about $107 million in total, so it's no longer a wee startup. It makes and sells consumer robots that could present serious danger if hacked, and should handle security issues more seriously.
