"Why even bother to tell them then?"

Believe it or not. There is also the aspect of civil courage, one willing to protect the others from potential harm. Detectify was born out of the frustration that an overwhelming part of the internet is completely unsecure for users. Usually completely unaware users.

Analogy: It's like you walking by a leaning scaffold with people passing under it. You realize that the scaffold is just a hair's breadth from rambling down, potentially harming a bunch of people. Bounty or not, you report to the authorities or the hard hats. Don't you?

Co-founder @ detectify.com Happy to be making a buck while hopefully making the interwebz a safer place ;)
