Responsible disclosure. Found and disclosed a promo bruteforce at HeyGen — free 3-month Premium codes could be enumerated via script to mint accounts. Reported directly before any misuse. Rewarded for disclosure, not exploitation. The fix shipped, the report stayed private.
A hard lesson. Later, reverse-engineered a hardened anime streaming API with Frida and rooted AVD, built Donghuax to 170k users on a MongoDB cache. When the dev patched and the remaining data kept serving, the line became clear. Shut it down, owned the mistake. Useful technique, wrong application.
Since then, I build systems that respect the boundaries they test.
