No I have not emailed Microsoft.  They are not entitled to any 
exlusivity.

Illegal?  Tell me what law in what country I have broken.

Like I said.  MS can offer just like anyone else but they do not 
get any special treatment.

The vulnerabilities I have for sale could be used in such a way but 
I am in no way responsible for what the purhcaser uses it for.  Are 
bullet manufacturers responsible when someone shoots someone else?

Again.  What law have I broken here?
