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.

Edit: why does this get a downvote? I guess Microsoft employees are ecstatic?

Lemmy has a lot of downvoters now. I try not to let it bother me! Thanks for contributing.

Or could it be because China hacks everything to steal intellectual property?

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.
