when i tried (and failed) to submit a bug report to anthropic, the submission form is really complex now and includes a bunch of inline questions and other stuff to stave off this sorta nonsense.
it took 20 minutes JUST TO FILL OUT THE FORM to submit a real bug.
course, they marked the bug as 'informational' and i got zero monies.
is "sending arbitrary text into their bounty tracking slack channel, exposing it to their staff" informational?
i guess i use another metric.
