I also like how you credited 2 people for what was effectively Firefox
telling you a website was unsafe, and 3 people for a login SQL.

Hi,

Considering the fact you didn't inform the concern authority at both
the universities (before disclosing publicly), are you not breaking
Indian IT Act by doing such type of public disclosure [1]? IANAL but
if you (someone else on list) have something to say about this point
it would be cool.

[1] IT Act 2000, Chapter 9, 43 (G) (
