MICROSOFT WOULDN'T LOOK AT A BUG REPORT WITHOUT A VIDEO

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Security researcher Will Dorman attempted to report a vulnerability to the Microsoft Security Response Center by providing a report with a clear description of the bug and supporting screenshots. However, Microsoft responded that it could not review the report until a video was submitted. This was unnecessary and time-wasting, as it would provide no additional details and would just show the commands that have already been screenshotted.
