      Actually, the research person was granted $10,000 from the bug bunty program.

      You can’t pay someone $10,000 for an email of your favorite youtuber.

        Yeah, I had to read all the way to the end of this really long article in order to discover that for myself. What a crappy title.

        I can see black hat abuse and selling these leaked email addresses being much more lucrative tbh.

        You could pay me for it. I only accept anonymous payments.

        Yes, the address. Probably not a big deal for average people, but definitely a bigger deal for any big name that doesn’t use a business email as a login.
