That’s of course another option.

I am just surprised because there are so many problems in tech where throwing money at it is not going to improve things.

However in this case, shouldn’t they be able to attract the best in the world just by turning the money gauge up?

If you are one of the most highly specialised vulnerability researchers in the world, would you seriously reject a $10m / year offer from Apple where you’d be able to spend all your time doing what you love with the only condition being that you report findings to Apple?
