They should feel bad about not communicating with the "researcher" after the fact, too. If i had been blown off by a "company" after telling them everything was wide open to the world for the taking, the resulting "blog post" would not be so polite.

At the end of the day the masses will finally get tired of the fuckery of programmers doing whatever they want and start putting laws in place, and the laws will be passed by the stupidest people among us.
Programmers now should start looking into standards of professional behaviors before they are forced on them by law.
And sure, if your follow-up is "that won’t change," I get it, but that doesn’t mean the open nature of programming is the problem.

I agree laws will pass eventually but it won't start from the people. They rarely even think or hear about software security as something other than an amorphous boogie man, and there are no repercussions so any voices are easily forgotten. Eventually, it will be some big tech corp executive or politician moving into government convincing them to create a security auditing authority to extract money from these companies and/or shut them down.
I'm sure we can find some holier than thou types to fill chairs with security auditors for the new "SSC" once it's greenlit.
