TECHi's Take
James Forshaw, a British security researcher, was paid a $100,000 bounty by Microsoft for finding a major security flaw within Windows 8.1.
The bounty for finding such a crucial flaw was $100,000, “probably one of the biggest made available,” explained Forshaw. Unfortunately he’s barely going to get any of it.
