    Google, Microsoft, etc. are underpaying the bug hunters

    It seems to me that Google and the other big companies vastly underpay those who find and report bugs. Compared to the potential lost income. bad press, etc. that could result from these undiscovered bugs, how much much difficult & hard work is put in to find them AND how many billions these companies have in the bank, they are paying peanuts.
