Original: Google pauses its open-source bug bounty program after a flood of AI slop reports

The company says the influx of automated, low-effort submissions is drowning out genuine findings and wasting researchers' time, prompting a suspension while it reassesses how the program operates.
Why now: The rise of AI-generated spam in security research is disrupting a major industry bug bounty program.
