Apple had plenty of time to patch it before these guys were going to go live with the flaw. Sometimes the only way to get a company like to "do the right thing" is to shame them into doing it.
So?

Nobody likes having their hand forced. Individual or corporation. I am not saying Apples actions are right. I think...Predictable fits this scenario though.

They took a swing at Apple, Apple swung back. What did they expect?

The guys went after someone with deep pockets.

Do so at your own risk.
