anecdotal, but if you search on youtube for 'naomi wu', the first 3 results are Vaush, Rebecca Watson and Keffals with some anti-Chinese gov videos from a month ago, so I'm assuming there's some shared judgement/agenda by those streamers to highlight negative stories about China
This really sucked because I like Naomi Wu and was trying to find out what happened, but can't get the rundown without it just being chalked up to "authoritarian CCP no free speech" from all the worst people on youtube.
On that note, wtf actually happened does anyone know?
Really aren't supposed to make exploits you discover public until after you have notified all the proper authorities and waited a specified amount of time to give the effected vendors time to get things patched if possible. Even in the US, just making this stuff public without following these best practices will get you visited by the FBI because they will be wondering if you are naive and need a talking to or you are some kind of agent of chaos wanting to see the world burn.
edit: to cover your ass and prevent companies from trying to pull this shit it's best to at the same time file a report with the CISA if in the US or the CAC if in China via their websites in addition to making a CVE report.
Ugggh. I hate it when companies pull that shit. Just wastes law enforcements time and tarnishes the companies reputation. It always backfires spectacularly but some of them still try it rather than saying "thank you" and maybe paying a bug bounty reward to encourage people to not just sell the information to a certain Israeli cyber-weapons firm. Apple used to be famous for doing this shit and even they eventually caved after realizing it was counter productive.
It's shitty. Hunting down bugs and exploits is a clear social good, but capitalists view it as a threat bc it's often expensive to mitigate the exploit, especially if it's hardware or firmware. Getting the cops involved in just dirty. The cops very likely don't have any sympathy for a random white-hat hacker trying to do a good thing, especially once they get in to a "threat to national security" attitude. I hope Naomi is okay. She's really vulnerable as an out lesbian and just being an outrageously stylish person. : p
Someone leaked some transphobic shit she did in DM's, there was a post about it with screenshots on a subreddit I'm subbed to but I can't seem to find it now unfortunately
the US Rep from Silicon Valley and this crew seems quite probable psyop territory

wasn't that Brianna Wu? Naomi lives in Shenzhen China, Brianna is a US-American
Wait Brianna Wu making transphobic comments? That's even more curious.
I just heard about it from this comment
Brianna Wu is a transmedicalist and assimilationist. She’s extremely transphobic against enbies and anyone she views as a “tankie” unfortunately.
Yeah you're right, got them mixed up.
Well fuck. I really liked her. Lemmie know if you find it.
It was Brianna Wu, not Naomi Wu. My bad.
Oh thank god. I was in an absolute funk yesterday from hearing that. I'm so glad it wasn't her.
Yeah sorry about that comrade
