I noticed the following sentence in Balmer's email to employees (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/news/press/2014/feb14/02-04ma...):

I love the breadth and the diversity of all of the customers we empower, from students in the classroom to consumers to small businesses to governments to the largest enterprises.

It's interesting to see the governments standing between small businesses and large enterprises in the minds of such men.

I think it has to do with intentions. Not trying to literally map online site to a house. But in general, when a person has found a vulnerability and is trying to report it in a good will (no matter through what channel), as opposed to using it to try and blackmail, etc., things should not be reversed and used against that person.
