IGN's report drew about 619 likes.
A hacker caused an uproar in the PlayStation 5 homebrew community by privately reporting an exploit to Sony and collecting a $50,000 reward, IGN reports.
Homebrew users wanted the exploit kept confidential for the community, where it could be used to run unofficial software, rather than handed to Sony to patch.
Why it mattersIt shows the old split between bug bounties and jailbreak culture. Once a hole is reported, it gets closed for everyone.
