Sure, I mean we’re all bitcoiners here, so it’s a given in this crowd that personal responsibility is important. I’m just saying, we should call out people who actively are trying to take things from others without permission.

If I’m in a restaurant, and somebody comes up and steals the hat off my head (the victim), I probably should have been holding it in place. The restaurant (you) probably should have had better security. But the one who is acting like a jerk is still the thief.

I hope he comes forward to you, but if he doesn’t, I just think he should at least be called out for acting like a jerk. Otherwise, we’re just on the slippery slope to might makes right.

My project got hacked and user funds were stolen

Thanks Jason!

What was important to me was discovering the exploit and being able to fix it (which I was able to do without communicating with the hacker)

I still might try to reach out to who I think the hacker (esp if they keep trying to attack) but I'm gonna give them to chance to come to me first.

In general though I take full responsibility for the attack, the hacker was just exploiting my mistake, so it falls on me.
