Talk:CSC 379 SUM2008:Week 3, Group 1

I don't know if we can neatly divide this into three parts (one for each of us). What I'm mainly seeing is that we'll really have two sections: one section discussing the merits of these markets (possibly some examples), and the other section discussing the potential problems associated with them (links to examples would be terrific).

I haven't looked at the links yet, but maybe there are examples out there of businesses that already do this sort of thing. Maybe that could be the final section; a listing of businesses and firms that buy bug reports.

For now, I say that everybody contribute what they can based on that formula, and then we can revise the page later if we determine a better organization.

<Matt> I'm going to start (finish?) the section on problems associated with them.

<Matt M> I've added a Background section and am currently finishing up the section dealing with the pros of this topic. Where is everyone else's contribution?

<Matt> Sorry I'm slow. my stuff will be up in 30 min

<Matt to Matt M> A lot of your stuff it good, however, the focus is not just on malware. I'll edit as needed. Let me know what you think if you see this before the deadline. My email is mabrown4@ncsu.edu I think Jason went to the beach. I don't know if he's looking at this or not.

<Jason> Teh Interwebs are not so reliable East of Rocky Mount. The C|Net article on VDA Labs and LinkedIn is a worth a read (added a note about extortion-potential to one of the bullets).

<Jason> Also, I think that the uniqueness of the economic rules that govern the behavior of this sort of market warrants a quick discussion. Hence, I have added an economics section.
