You have absolutely no idea what "responsible" in "responsible disclosure" means :) It's completely irrelevant how Mastodon has implemented private posts when it comes to how Dansup handled the issue, knowing what the effects were.

You don't, when told of a vulnerability, handle it in a way that cause harm if it can be avoided.

Yeah, you said that stuff before and then you said it again. I do understand what your argument is here. I was trying a couple of different ways of explaining what I was saying in response, but it seems like it's not working. Oh well.
