Read the facts.
Mike didn't air out ANY IP during his demonstration, nor did he release the code that he used during his demonstration.

He Found the Flaw,
He Reported the Flaw to ISS AND Cisco in March 05
He Told the world about the Flaw yesterday and Proved it with a demonstration.

It is NOT up to him to tell Cisco how to fix it.
It's Cisco's Problem. The refused to fix it in March, and now they MUST fix it to save face.

Mike told everyone, so Cisco would HAVE to fix it. As they were not motivated in any way to fix it between March 05 and yesterday.

You may wish to read the facts before you go spouting off about things and people that you aren't well informed about. Mike, and his friends are business people... not "computer people". And yes, we DO know how business works... Cisco and ISS wanted to exploit their customers with this flaw, hence their reticence to fix it. Now this cannot be accomplished, as most intelligent business people will go purchase their router hardware from a more ethical source.
