Practice

Record the number before you repeat it

Amount, source, and date go on the card before the sentence you would say out loud.

bughunters.google.com published this account (2026-10-04): TechCrunch reported Google froze OSS VRP product submissions after a rise in automated/AI reports. Rules page and vendor post say submissions stopped as of 2026-10-01, with an update promised in Q1 2027.

This guide uses that public page as the example. This site did not run the test, close the deal, or measure the product.

Write only what the page says

The page's claim is: TechCrunch reported Google froze OSS VRP product submissions after a rise in automated/AI reports. Rules page and vendor post say submissions stopped as of 2026-10-01, with an update promised in Q1 2027.

Put the URL under that sentence. If a later recap adds a number or a date, keep the original page as the record.

Amount, source, and date go on the card before the sentence you would say out loud.

Do the site's check on this one page. Fill a line only when the page supports it. Where the page is silent, write Not stated.

A finished note names the page, the date, and the limit of the claim. It does not borrow a result from a different story.

Stop at the untested line

Anything you did not open, install, or count stays untested. Leave that line visible.
