By hurt I assume you mean financially and not that anyone will be physically harmed. If you've done due diligence by contacting the developers I think you have a responsibility to make it known what you have found so that others can put pressure on to fix it. Just my .02

Actually yes, physically. The bug is in a beta version of Skynet.

I tend to agree with you, and that's what my heart is telling me, but aren't there legal issues involved? I seem to recall the standard being something like "Wait 30 days after informing", but if they outright refuse to fix it before then and they say so, am I able to be sued for damages if I disclose?
