Note: I am not the one currently dropping windows LPEs. Thats someone who previously went by klinix7 and was also hired by Microsoft after me and my former manager (the one microsoft retaliated against for defending me) advocated for them. I still believe to this day it is one of the most talented people I have seen. Especially given their age. Saw them exploit some pretty cool race conditions in windows installer rollback scripts after I had already exploited that to death and being so familiar with that attack surface, I immediatly recognized this was a very talented person. Shame on this industry for apparently not being able to manage talent. Real talent isn't abundant. Being able to write fuzzing harnesses and find bugs isn't real talent. Sure, maybe talent comes with a price and maybe these people arn't always easy to work with.. but you shouldn't treat them like absolute shit like Microsoft does.

 Looking for a broker that I can legally sell.

I have a bunch of Windows related stuff I want to try and sell. I would like to be able to make some money from a decade of Windows related research as traditional routes such as submitting to MSRC have become a non-Option for me.

Most ideally, I would still prefer some freelance work for a couple of months, where I'm paid independently of bug finds. Just to have some stability and so I can take time-off afterwards to go backpacking for a couple of months to try and recover from all the traumatic events that have happened in recent years. That would still be my prefered option right now... I can help validating AI findings, or test the security of an Open Source project .. I'm really good at finding bugs others have missed and I'm sure I can still outperform AI aswell. Or hell, I can even use AI to aid in testing and use my extensive knowledge to validate the findings. I'm open for anything. I'm on the market.. just let me know...
