>Sure, but that DOES NOT mean you're immune to criticism, especially when it comes to security.

But our society does not just openly accept giving criticism. There are rules. Unwritten and extremely vague ones, no doubt, but still social rules. This is especially so when criticizing something a person is providing for free. In this incident, did the criticism cross the boundary and violate those rules? It seems so. Many people likely gave respectful criticism that followed the rules but they appear to have been drowned out by those who did not.
