4chan Launches '$20 Bug Bounty' After Hackers Ruin moot's Day

mask.of.sanity (1228908) writes "4chan's founder Moot has launched a bug bounty for the site after it was hacked, but is offering a meager $20 in 'self-serve ad spend' for all bugs. The bounty program was launched after the website and Moot's Amazon accounts were hacked. The intrusion spelled the end for DrawQuest which was closed after Moot decided it was not worth spending money to ensure the unprofitable but popular drawing platform was secure."

    This poor, virginal loser didn't try to create the internet's most purposefully asinine userbase. He just got it. Anyone can make an anonymous forum. And if 4chan ever goes away, someone else will.

    So, Random Inc, you bought 4chan last week. What does it feel like to support child molesters, beastiality, rape, suicide, and other obscene acts?

    I mean, their choices would be to moderate the community(in which case the community would vanish), or to acknowledge and remain laissez-faire to the fact that 4chan hosts a hoard of illegal content.

    Oh, so Reddit?
