The hacker who uncovered a bug on Facebook earlier this week may indeed get a reward for his efforts, but not from the social network itself. After it became clear that Facebook would not pay Khalil Shreateh a bug bounty for his discovery, arguing that he had violated the site’s Terms of Service, a crowdfunding effort launched on GoFundMe to raise funds for Shreateh — an unemployed Palestinian programmer — independently. Within three days more than 250 people contributed more than $12,000.
